A misty still eerie morning in Glendalough's Upper lake in Ireland. I love the dark mood at dawn in this image. Captured on film. Pentax 67 and Velvia.

I like how the swirling mist you've caught seems to focus attention on the far trees. Nice mood.

I love the mood, the subdued colors, and the details on the left side of the frame. Assuming you snapped several images while the fog was moving through, did you happen to capture any frames where there is similar detail on the right side of the frame? IMO it feels slightly off-balance as is.

Very nice mood capture. Don't know about the history of knights and such in that area, but I can just about hear the clack of horse hooves and the clank of armor coming through the fog.

Very mysterious image, Peter. It does feel a little left heavy, but I think it adds to the mystery. I like it as is. The detail in that giant oak (or whatever) is great given the conditions.

A stunning image, Peter, with a mysterious yet wonderful mood. Really like the 50:50, and the touch of detail in the largest of the trees. Outstanding.

Very moody. I like that there is detail in the trees and the shoreline.

A large version would be nice so as to see all the detail.
