Misty Morning Canal (Kayak in Fog)

(( taken with my phone camera in 2015 ))

 

 

: )

 

Hello my friends!

 

This is the fastest I've ever uploaded a new photo after my last one!

Thought I'd try to get some more photos up a bit quicker : )

 

This new upload was taken near the end of 2015 in November, on what was a very foggy morning.

 

I actually walked around for hours that morning waiting for the thick fog to lift in some places... just to try and shoot specific areas : )

 

My waiting paid off as the fog lifted from the canal and left a slight mist floating atop the water.

I must have been having trouble seeing through my old Sony HX60V LCD screen because I had pulled out my camera phone (Galaxy Note 4) and started taking photos with that instead.

 

To my surprise, a person quietly paddled in front of me in a kayak!

I didn't hear them coming until the last moment... so I tried to line up a shot with my phone and was really surprised with the quality of it afterward : )

 

Things I personally like about this photo...

It was just one of those magical moments, not prepared at all!

The water being lifted and splashed from the rowing oars : )

The beautiful old Nordic Museum building is in the background! (that building appears in 2 other pictures on my photostream as well!)

I also enjoyed the reflections in the water and the split between smooth & rippled water (from his paddling).

I was happy that the tree branches were reaching over the water and that the rocks on the shore & the mist were all included in this shot... I only had seconds to compose this one as the guy paddled quickly by!

 

Sometimes we just get lucky : )

 

 

I truly hope you guys enjoy this one!

I could write a small book about that specific morning and all the walking, viewing & picture taking I did ; )

 

 

Appreciate your support guys & I wish you all a wonderful day ahead!

 

: )
