It was the fog that woke me, trailing insistent fingers against my bedroom window, urging me to wake up.
I resisted, burrowed deeper into my bed, but one glimpse of those foggy tendrils grabbed me, pulled me out of my cocoon, and sent me in search of my camera.
Because everyone wants to be wandering around in the fields an hour before sunrise, right?
As usual, I really didn’t know what I was looking for and the first three or four dozen shots I took proved that. I kept walking. Then, I started to play with the ribbons of fog as they wound through the trees and fields.
And then fog around the abandoned farm site.
And then, the first peachy hues of the approaching sun.
And then… And then…
An oddly-stacked gallery from that morning walk, but I found that I was most happy with slices of the landscape, rather than full-on traditional ratios. Please click on any image to view the shots in a gallery format.
One more shot to share. I was out for a little more than an hour and returned home pretty satisfied with my morning’s work. Came in through the back patio doors, put down my camera, took off my wet shoes…and glanced back outside to see this display over my flower garden:
Sunrise plus lingering fog, all filtered through the trees, equals WOW!
