Hear is a varied set taken in the dense fog at Nickerson Beach last week. Visibility was bout 40 yards creating a magical atmosphere on the beach with only a few people there.

nicely done, though the earlier post with the OCs was more appealing, IMHO.

With thick fog like that most photographers would stay home. Morris is out there and gets some interesting shots. Nice work.

I like your willingness to do something "different." This is a great set and the fog creates an interesting and unique mood.

#2, #7 and #8 are my faves of the set. The combination of a reflection and the misty setting is really neat in the last one in my opinion.

Thank you Roberta,
This day was a great start to my annual opportunity to shoot fog during the Autumn. I can't wait to add fall color to this

Thank you Daniel,
I was looking for compositions with reflections. It was so crowded I had a hard time finding clean ones

Seems to be a lot of fog around these days! Number 8 is my choice with 7 being a close second!

I'm impressed you persevered through the conditions, Morris. Way to make the most of it.

#3 is my pick. Did you try B&W treatments to see how they'd look?

Thank you Jim,
I love shooting in all sorts of weather for the moods they create. I did look in B&W and feel the touch of color adds to the mood
