Image from yesterday morning. The fog was starting to lift and the barn got light.

This is a great image. Wonderful perspective, colors and composition. And your timing was just right. That fog puts this over the top.

Allan - The fog really adds a great dimension to this. I like the comp too. Well done.

TFS,

I agree with the others for the reasons why this is so appealing.

As an alternative, I would suggest some Local Contrast Enhancement. This will bring up some detail in the trees and barn at the expense of the foggy effect. So a matter of taste if you try it.

Beautifully captured. I love the composition and the fog gives this scene such serenity. It's too bad the leaves have already fallen off of the trees but the weather in the northeast was just brutal for our foliage this year. Nothing we can do about that except wait for next year (a familiar refrain for Red Sox fans--lol). Cheers!

A very well done and interesting photo. The fog is perfect and the comp is really good.

I love the soft dreamy feel here - almost like an Orton Effect has been applied by the fog
Nice and simplistic - often the best photos are created by following this approach...

I did like the soft yellow color when I saw the barn. I think if I did anything to it I would desaturate the green just a bit.

I don't know if leaves would have helped. They might have just made the barn color less prominent.

I agree with you about the leaves. I also agree about desaturating the green a little, but I still think it's a dynamite image the way it is.

[Andrew Aveley]

simple and very effective :) Agree with the LCE on the trees ...........but top shot

Nice mood to this Alan. Agree you could go in many directions but I like this as presented.

Thanks for all the comments. I decided to leave it "as is."

[Andrew McLachlan]

Hi Alan, I would leave it as is also. Love the fog and the early winter tree...I think leaves would spoil the look you have here.
