Notes on fog mornings

Fog forgives a lot. It hides power lines, simplifies busy forests and turns every ridge into a layer. The trick is timing: it usually lifts within forty minutes of sunrise, so I aim to be in place before first light.

Expose for the brightest part of the mist and let the trees go dark. Resist the urge to lift the shadows afterwards; the mood lives in them.
