Dreary Day

Snow this morning, which changed to rain and drizzle.  Then fog formed this afternoon late.  It was a bleak and dreary day, it seemed.  But the fog does have this wonderful way of making scenes magical - in this case, separating the near from the far.  I love how the branches of the closer trees are black, and then as the trees get farther away their branches get lighter and lighter gray.  I have always loved that effect, and it shows here.  I think it makes things more mysterious.
