Sun Up
Posted by Slackwater - don (spokane, United States) on 18 February 2009 in Landscape & Rural.
After coffee yesterday morning, the ground fog began to lift and the sun started showing through the trees. I liked the relatively obscured foreground while the sun lit up the trees. The Little Spokane River frequently provides extra moisture causing fog to develop for several hours. This ground fog hovers around the river in a thin layer. One can almost see blue sky directly above. It soon burns off.

Cool lighting in this one, up way too early for me though!

Terrific Don. You timed this perfectly with just enough fog to soften the sun

I too find the mostly obscured foreground an important part of this. Excellent capture.

The sun peaking over the trees in the fog looks great. Very nice. I kind of with there was a foreground subject that was more clear from the fog.
