Fog in Winnetka

Last night it rained, and this morning it was unusually warm,

 so when I woke up and looked out my window everything was

 enveloped in fog. I went through my morning routine and

 decided to take the later bus to school so that I could take my tripod

 and walk over to Elm Park to take some landscape shots of the 

fog and the trees.

I thought that shooting with a small aperture and slow shutter

 speed would make the fog more prominent, but it really didn't, so on

 my way home I quickly snapped these photos of the trees in Elm

 Park next to the sidewalk and this tree with the sun behind it in my 

backyard. The bottom photo has an interesting Dr. Seuss-like effect,

 and the top photo works because of the old house behind the tree.
