Coastal Fog

Description


Along the coast of Maine - Where the Atlantic Ocean and the Kennebec River meet - I was hoping for clear weather but fog can be such a great element so I decided to hang out and see what I could get.

(Sometimes it is what you don't see is what makes the picture)

I think you got a great deal in getting the fog. It sure does make for one beautiful picture. I think this scene would be beautiful regardless of the weather, but I am loving this. Love the composing with the boat along the lower half of the picture and the fog covering most of it. Gorgeous colors and look. A Winner all the way if I'm the judge my friend. #10837621
