'Meeting with the Mist' was shot on a late fall campout. Freezing rain fell through the night. We woke to a perfectly calm air sunrise. The warming sunshine generated a heavy evaporative fog that hung very still in the air. You could watch the mist develop on the surface of the water,rise just a short distance and hang motionless above the water. My son stepped out onto the fishing levee to pose for the silhoutted shot.

Thanks again for all your comments. The best thing about this image, beyond the beauty of the sunrise and the early morning mist, is that it's a family image, time spent with my son and other friends on a Boy Scout camping trip. Best regards to all, Ricardo.

Thanks for your comments on my portfolio James. It's a bit spread out by subject matter but I guess that's just my opportunistic style.
