More photos in the mist

Monday, March 10, 2008

This week I am discussing a few more photographs taken in the mist. I like to take these kind of photographs as they add softness and depth to the photographs. The first photo above is our farmhouse in Mid Wales. The picture is taken from behind some flower beds in the front garden.
In this photograph I like the way the house has been softened by the mist. The mist has also given depth to the photograph as the further things are way from the camera, the more obscured they become.

The image below was taken on a foggier day. This shows two trees at the end of our garden. Normally the view has the Cambrian mountains in the background, but these are totally obscured by the fog. The image is almost monochromatic which, I feel, adds to the atmosphere.

The final photo below was taken at the same time as this week's 'Picture of the Week'. Taken at a different angle, there is less contrast so that more detail is observable. The remnants of the mist can still be seen in the background.
