The Way
I expected to find fog. I didn’t get what I wanted, but when it comes to fog, I rarely do. Fog is elusive and never plays fair, though when you do get it, it makes the most amazing photographs.
REGARDLESS, I still got some pretty nice practice with longer exposure night photography. This was actually the first photo I took that night. It turned out to be the best. I may show you more of this shoot later.
This was a 3 second exposure at City Park in Appleton. There was a full moon, but it was obscured by an overcast sky, which created an orange/red sky. The long exposure seemed to enhance that effect which lead to this photo.
How to proceed with this shot?
Ignore the fact that the picture is crooked for a moment. I’m having difficulty deciding on a crop for this photo. I also don’t know if I prefer color or black and white. I like them all!
By the way, I got guite a few nice shots (including this one) from the Heckrodt shoot. I’m glad I waited a bit to look at them. I feel like I can be more objective when I’ve sort of “forgot” about the pictures for a bit. There will be more incoming.
The Tree
I missed a opportunity to shoot some hoarfrost this morning. I was able to get this capture though. My parents live out in Wrightstown surrounded by dairy farms and corn fields. This field is right across the street from their house. I’m considering going back out there in the early morning, as my parents say it is very pretty around dawn.
On the other hand, I strongly dislike 6 a.m.
Oh yeah, I started a photoblog for my website. Yay.
