Misty morning

I love this time of the year when mist forms in the early morning and drapes the landscape for a while before being burned off by the sun. It is also one of the occasions where it really pays to know good locations in your local area, so you can charge out and know in advance exactly what you want to achieve and where.

I drove out to a place called Ketting Nor, which is only a slight detour from my normal route to work, knowing that the sun would illuminate everything from behind. Backlighting really suits mist well. I took a couple with the sun in my back, but they didn’t turn out anywhere near as dramatic as these. Enjoy.

    Fantastic pictures. Those cobwebs beat the feeble photographs of the same that I have taken.
