Morning Mist


The other morning I came out to see the maple tree, wet with rain, and the sunlight was shining on the branches through the leaves, in patches. Then I happened to notice what looked like steam coming off one of the branches! It was the sun heating the wood and the moisture was evaporating. Since the scene was backlit, it showed up the faint moisture. I also like the vaguely foreboding feel of the scene.

  1. Ken, you sure get a wide range of great shots from a few of your favorite models - the Japanese maple and of course the sycamores on Shore Road. Love the way you captured the light here.

  2. I didn't recognize the tree, this shot was so different! I'm a big fan of sunlight bursting through shots, so I love it.

  3. Thank you both for your nice comments. It just goes to show, that when I am desperate for a photograph, then I REALLY start looking, and then end up with somehing completely different.
