Top of the Stairs II
The series that I recently ran on the spiral stairs in Beacon Hill Park started when I spotted this misty corner of the park on my way by in the car and pulled over to see if it would take to a photograph.
The mist only lasted a few more minutes after I arrived and the sun warmed up the frost.

Thanks Andy! I love that kind of light and have never found a fully satisfactory technique for capturing it, especially in colour.

Awesome photos. I just LOVE the fog that is draping over parts of the landscape here, adding a perfect element of intrigue and drama. Lovely work, my good friend!

Thank you! I doubt I would have taken any shots here at all, but for that fog.

A good example of why we are never moving away from here. 🙂

Hi Meanderer – thanks so much. I find mist like this very peaceful. Also, it usually means it is warming up to be a nice day.

I agree with Oneowner about the mist – it gives a lot more depth to the images. I enjoyed your spiral stairs series; thanks for stopping to check out the site. I believe it did “take to a photograph.”

I think it took as well. I have a few more shots from this stop which I have not fully processed. I expect a couple more will make the blog at some point.

The mist is so fleeting but it adds so much to a photograph, even just a little bit. The second phot has some really nice curved lines that I like a lot. Nice work.

Thank you Ken. It can be frustratingly fleeting at times, disappearing just when everything is set up for a shot. I like that second one too, including the man and dogs which add something in this case. Everywhere I turned that morning there were dogs, hard to keep them out of my pictures.
