I don't get to post in tihis forum very often, as I have relatively few landscape photos, but here is one from a foggy morning last week. All comments and suggestions welcome and appreciated. Best, Pam

    This one certainly resonates with me, Pam. I spent a lot of my youth along the Mississippi coast and I've seen countless scenes just like this one. You captured the mood of the moment very well.thumb.gif

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Just plain nice...good capture. I really like the depth of field.

    I've returned to this several times, Pam. Just beautiful, almost surreal.

    Thank you so much, Ed! I like the oak trees in the fog, which appears often in our area. Bests, Pam

    Thanks, Joel! That is quite a compliment, and I truly appreciate it. I was glad to get a nice shot this time of year, as southern Louisiana, to me, looks a little scruffy now compared to spring time. Best, Pam

    Hi Pam, I spent several years in Florida and longed to capture this very type of scene, but my images always turmed out too busy with no focal point.
    Very nice! You have captured this beautifully! It makes me miss those quiet misty mornings in the south.

    Great shot--I like the composition, with the foreground tree leading to the other trees. Super job with the fog--enough to make the scene quiet and peaceful but not too much so that it detracts from the lovely trees. I like that this is not saturated either--looks very natural. Well done!
