Thanks, Flickr, for taking a look.

 

During an early morning, winter hike through breathtaking Torrey Pines State Reserve in San Diego, a fog bank had rolled in as the sun arose over the mountains to the east, creating a brief pocket of light that gave way to a beautiful golden cast over the canyons. Knowing that the fog was hanging around at dawn and dusk that week, I waited three mornings for this opportunity. I was fortunate, but persistent. For those precious 15 to 20 minutes, nature greeted me with this soft, misty, and magical light.

 

I describe the making of this photograph in an article on the on-line publication Photography Life .
