My youngest daughter and I went down to the park one Saturday morning to hang out before swim lessons. It was the foggiest morning of the season. I was shooting this and that when this gentleman just appeared out of nowhere. It was a busy Saturday morning, with a lot of the men getting out on the water. Right after we left at 8:00, they started a fishing tournament.
This is one of those simple perfection photographs that we all dream of taking. Your composition and timing of the moment are spot on and I can all but hear the sound of the outboard pushing out of the mist. A top-rater.
nice one...was going to capture a fog shot today but the god of batteries was against me so....
8/10
Great atmospheric shot well captured.
if they fish during the tournament in the same way as you handled this scene .... there will be no fish left!
Wonderful Capture! I have something similar from MT. St. Helen's but it is just a snap shot nothing so pretty!
Yes he always has that hat on LOL and if it is not on his head it is hanging around his neck LOL ( he is not aloud to wear it in class LOL) We got on just like it for Zachary ( he just ardors the boys) and just this week i bought a red and gray one for Zoie so she can have one but be more girly LOL
Well we have 2 less tree's! no one was hurt and nothing was broken! well other then the saw blade LOL someone has placed a spike in one of the tree's and it grew around it!
Dave had a limited area to fall the tree's, the bigger of the 2 brushed up against my windows on the back side of the house but not one scratch or crack! I'm so proud of my guys!
Micki, what can I say? It all comes together here. Light. Fog. Composition. Timing. Excellent!!!
Wow, super shot! I love it! Fog makes things so moody and sometimes creepy!
Donncha
I think AG pretty well sums this up. Well done Micki!
Oh wow Micki! What a beautful scene. Mist on the lake is my favourite.
What a wonderful serendipitous shot. There is nothing better than being in the right place at the right time and of course having the skill to capture it.
Wonderful shot, Micki.
Odd time to do a fishing tournament to me with all that heavy fog.
Oh Wow! That's a beautiful picture.
Great shot! Could be a bit spooky given Halloween almost here.
Mmm, fog. And a boat. Two of my favorite things!
Perfect - messing about in boats - I wish every day could be like that.
Oh! What a Fantastic shot!
I Love it.
that's really foggy!your daughter is going to swim in the river?
nice shot ! i love photos with fog...
We had beautiful fog over in our part of the world yesterday morning and I was just too tired to will myself out of bed into the cold. As Murphy's Law will have it, in a week's time when I'm on holiday, there probably won't be any fog to shoot in.
Beautiful atmospheric shot.
Very beautiful shot, i can only dream of such timing.
That is a great photo. With the fog lifting and the guy just getting ready and getting out there. Awesome.
love these fog shots
Perfectly classic - such atmosphere!
