Morning mist
The road I take to work runs in east-west direction, so now in the autumn (and again in the spring) I get the morning sun in the face when I drive to work, and setting sun when I drive home. It can create some dangerous moments when the sun completely blinds you so you can’t see where you’re driving, but it can also provide some very beautiful moments like this morning mist which was coloured orange by the rising sun. I stopped the car and started to look for some more photogenic spots than the road and luckily there’s marshland on both sides of the road at this place. So there I was, running around the half frozen bog with my feet getting increasingly wet while I was desperately trying to get the same light on the fog as what I saw on the road.
I couldn’t find any more orange mist, but I did catch the play of light. Good thing I had left home earlier than usual, I had a hunch that the morning would turn out photogenic. And you won’t find me skipping around bogs at 7am during weekends anyway!
(These images are actually from yesterday morning. I had an image processing backlog (for some strange reason) and didn’t get around to these until now.)

We have also had some misty mornings here, but no pictures though. I have 1.7km distance to the office and I usually walk there, so, not that much shooting ops
Luckily we have all weekends free, and “luckily” the weather is usually rainy :@ Well, perhaps I’ll start shooting small objects in my cardboard-box studio then…
Darn. Nice is quite an understatement! ’nuff said!
