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.
