‘Rather like scenes from a tapestry I have been stitching over the years’ – James Ravilious
Frosty fog in the dawn light, hiding clutter and context. Isolated shapes in place of familiar views. Receding planes of grey. A morning to treasure after weeks of flat, dark, steel-grey skies. An hour of billowing variations in density and luminance. Until – gradually – the rising sun burned-off the mist to leave clear, sharp light. Still a lovely morning, but not where my mind was. So, home for coffee and Photoshop.

Very nice processing, just right.
Thank you. I didn’t have to do much apart from a bit of contrast
This is gorgeous Matt, I love fog and think it can make great images, for all the reasons you pointed out too. Your winter is ending as we are heading into it, wondering what out will be like.
Thank you so much! It’s not typical for my corner of south-west London, so worth getting up early for. Maybe if I lived somewhere more rural. Melbourne has a reputation for quite varied weather, doesn’t it? All those Southern Ocean currents swirling around you must create some interesting conditions.
Sounds perfect to me! When the light changes and you’re done, head for coffee and the computer. Resulting in a wonderful text and image.
Perfect? Yes, it felt like that, pretty much. I’m very glad if it shows in the results.
