WOODS IN FOG

The other morning we experienced some dense fog in our neighborhood, and I took advantage of it to get a few photos of the woods in a nearby park situated on a bluff overlooking Lake Michigan.

Fog can be a real friend to landscape photographers because it can provide added depth to their photos.  In some cases fog can also be useful in eliminating background distractions.  In this case I did some post processing to emphasize the fog and the depth that it creates.  I did crop down the shots to improve the shots' compositional balance.  I felt too that the photos worked better as black and whites.  I also softened up the shots' apparent focus to emphasize the fog.  This is most apparent in the shot cropped as a landscape.

  1. For some reason I am thinking there should be a man on horseback emerging from the fog (don't ask me why!). Another interesting series John. I don't think I've ever taken photos in the fog but now I will attempt it if the opportunity presents itself.
