Fog on the New River


This isn't the best composed shot
and the exposure is probably off

but I really loved it because of the FOG.

I think I may love FOG as much as I love

Leaves and Benches :)
I also liked how the sun was shining on the hill

on the right...highlighting some of the

fall colors that were still around.
This was shot on the New River in Giles County, Virginia

about 8:10 am on Saturday morning.

  4. I see nothing short in the composition here . . I like the way you have retained the mystery of the fog and the simple light of morning.

  6. It's a beauty of a photo! Yes, the light on the hill and the fog add interest--there's a lot to see here!

    Thanks for your visit to my blog and for your enthusiasm. Nature makes us so rich! I love bark too, so we are kindred spirits!

  7. It's a good photograph and there is nothing wrong with the composition for my taste. Fog often adds to a photograph as long as it is not too thick.

  9. Very nice elements and the sun on the fall leaves gives just the right boost to the stillness.

  10. I cannot complain about the composition of that shot, Kerri. The hillside covered in trees on the right, the water, the FOG... I like it!
    Thanks,

  11. Don't blame yourself without cause. It's the kind of picture I like!

  12. The composition works for me. The fog adds considerably to the shot.

    If it were my photo I would open it in Photoshop, select the mountainside and sky, darken slightly and boost contrast a little while leaving the remainder of the photo unchanged.

  13. Well the exposure is a little off but the picture is really nice and I would certainly be proud of it. Try to think of how the scene looked to your own eyes. If you saw more details in the distance than the picture shows then there is more detail in your picture that is either there or not there. Only you know that for sure.

    But it is a magnificent shot and I would be satisfied with it.

  20. Hi Kerri. I think this is a beautiful view, one that appeals to me a lot. The fog just adds to the whole scene.

  21. I cannot say that I like fog because I don’t like it at all. But this photo is wonderful because of the light on the hill from the sun, because of the fall colors on the hill… the still water, because of the peace that I can feel while looking at this photo that make me relax.

  22. I think this is beautiful and to me, I wouldn't change a thing...

  23. As someone who grew up in Darjeeling (where I went to boarding school) and now lives in Melbourne, there is nothing better than a good fog picture.

    I posted one of fog hiding a skyscraper at http://david-mcmahon.blogspot.com/2007/03/how-do-you-hide-skyscraper.html

    Yours is a beautiful shot.

  24. I think the photo has a mystical look to it, and when you look on the water there is like two different colors on the water.

  26. Oh, Kerri, this is a fantastic photograph. You've done the scene justice and then some. Thank you so much for seeing it posting it.

  27. Love this shot Kerri. The new river has a lot of railroad history around it too, if it is the same "New River" that I am thinking of.

    Great late fall shot.

  28. Beautiful! I love the lines and reflections, as well as the subtle colors.

  29. Why do we love fog so much? I am completely fogged in on the mountain this morning and I am in heaven. There is snow and ice all around so that nobody dares go out, and I couldn't be happier.

    Happy Thanksgiving!
