Title: Autumn dogwood tree and fog.
Post by: stevenfr on May 23, 2019, 02:26:10 pm
Autumn dogwood tree in fog. It was very early in the morning when I was photographing this forest. It was very peaceful and quiet. I moved quickly to try and get as many compositions as I could before the morning fog lifted. I spent a few days scouting out my spots/locations in the forest, so that I would be ready when I got a day with fog. It pays to put the time in, generally my shots are all planned.

We are finally getting light like this in Yosemite, but I'm stuck working!  This is my favorite light for trees.

You need to phone in sick and go shooting. Light like this is pretty special.

Great mood with this fog! It's not too thick and we can see all the details of the brightly colored red leaves.
Bravo.

Thanks for the kind feedback. The fog was key to this image working.
