Foggy Stream

by James Kyle

Just after a light rain in warm summer air – Because of the cool temp. of the water (51 to 58 D.F.) the fog appears to “float” on the top of the water.

Equipment: Canon 30D – Sigma Wide-angle 15-30mm – Photomatix Software

NOW I am doing a carrier change.
Since age 15 I have been making photographs – Now that I am a full grown boy (Age 62) I have the time I need to become a Professional Photographer.
A very avid Outdoorsman I like Canoeing, Hiking, Camping (I am One fine Camp-cook).. And Photography plugs great into all my interests.

This is lovely. The lighting is so unusual, but it helps the viewer feel a part of the scene–with light bouncing all around. Where is this?

This is so enchanting! The still, quiet, presence of peace. Sometimes I go to such a place in my dreams. Thank you.

great shot and very technical. I like the effect on the water but the framing gives a whole great impact.

Wonderful photo. I am learning to use my 30D so that I may become a Professional Photographer, too, someday. I also dream of pursuing photography seriously upon retirement (in 20+ years). Did you use a filter of any sort on your lens, like a polarizing type? Thank you. -David
