We've had alot of flooding from the creeks lately and we had a few days of warm weather followed by very cold...thus, the fog/steam arising from the overflowing creeks. this is one of the images captured lately.

Critiques are very welcomed so I may learn. Thank you.

D70, 70-300, ISO 200, f10
cropped from bottom a touch, a little PS work

Oh, that's magical. The snow in the trees, and the blue, makes it seem like a starry night. And the fog makes it seem even more mysterious. I wish I could see more of the trees!

Very surreal beth. As someone else noted it seems like a starry night with lots of fog. Intriguing winter photo.

Beth,
A wonderful image. The mist definitely makes this image IMO.

Beth,
A truly outstanding photo. The combination of snow/mist in the lower portion with the mysterious tree trunks splattered with snow and the spots of snow in the trees twinkling like lights.... my poor command of the English language can't do this photo justice. Really fine! :toast: :toast: :toast: :eek: :eek: :eek:
