    Just when I thought it couldn't get any better, the low clinging mist started to rise as the sun was just about to show over the mountains. This image was captured at the Bosque del Apache last week. C&C welcome.

    D500, Sigma 150-600mm @ 185mm, 1/1000s, f 7.1, ISO 1600, Gitzo, Wimberley Gimbal head.

    Geoffrey:

    I like the multiple horizontal layers, the soft morning light, the different species, gives a nice feel for the place. Nice sense of depth, with the 3 birds on the far horizon on the left frame edge helping give a sense of scale.

    Cheers
