More Fog Lifting!

Well, technically not fog this time, but mist. Here it is lifting peacefully from the water of a mountain lake on one of those incredibly still, quiet mornings that I think only can be experienced in the Norwegian countryside. Once again the sepia version seems to capture the atmosphere and beauty of the moment best. I was indeed fortunate to have this as my bedroom view last summer. Now, in the midst of winter, the lake is frozen over and deep snow covers the entire landscape –beautiful in a different way. I like here the relationship of the two young trees, standing a little apart like shy sweethearts at a dance, with the whole symphony of nature's beauty warming up behind them. The reflections and the various pools of light are pleasing too. Location, Valdres, Norway
