Week 35, Day 248, December 27, 2009, Foggy, Icy, Sunday Morning Walk

Yesterday I mentioned that I was going to do a series of photos in my cellar.  I've postponed that for another day.  This morning was such an interesting morning, that I had to go outside and take some photographs.  It was a little below freezing, and it rained yesterday.  There ice on many of the trees.  It was also foggy.  A great combination in my mind.

Here is a photo of the back of my neighbors barn, and a rock wall.  There is fog in the background and coming in on the right of the photo.  There is also ice on the branches on the right.  The sun was also starting to burn through the fog, and the ice on the branches is reflecting that light.  Please CLICK ON THE IMAGE for a larger view.

Lessons Learned:

• In the summer time there are many leaves on the trees in this area.  The lack of leaves in the winter allows for some different types of photography.  
• Once again the circular polarizer lens helps with the colors.

Photo details: Exposure time 1/3 sec, Aperture f/14.0, ISO 100, Focal Length 28 mm, Lens Canon EF 17-40mm, tripod.
