Here is a shot from Dry Island Buffalo Jump here in Alberta. I was excited to see the fog in the valley as I approached on this morning! Thanks for any comments.

The mix of elements is very attractive. I'm enjoying the way the foreground is sharp, then fog smooths the midground, leading to the empty sky beyond.

That fog turns it into a magical scene. I also like the colors very much.

Very ethereal Wayne. The fog adds a lot of mood. I like the understated colors too.

This image really carries a hint of autumn with it. Love the muted grass and soft layers of the fog. Very nice work

Excellent comp for the conditions you experienced. The white plant in the foreground makes for a nice focal point.
