Another misty, cold morning... by robz

Another misty, cold morning...

Past the old gate post and across the horse paddock...
So evocative. I grew up on a farm and your early morning misty images bring back so many memories. Love them!

Wonderfully thought provoking

I love the colour of the atmosphere - its almost ghostly and quite mysterious. Beautiful.

great shot

Very nice, looks like you are waiting for something or someone to come out of the mist.

What was the gate leading too? Nice atmosphere

@clifford Hi Cliff. We think the place I was standing in was originally a deer paddock - it had 6ft high, hand chopped and shaped posts with this post for a gate post - hence the bar and chain. The posts made it hard to control weeds so we actually removed most of them - except tof this gate post. Cheers Rob

Hi Suzanne. Being from the GC we were never used to this until we came up here. We love the look of them- but not the cold so much!
I tried the IR camera on this one - didn't really expect it to co-operate with the reduced light levels. I fiddled with the F stop and exposure bias settings and it reluctantly took some images. And they worked out much better than normal! No blue, no red - just subtle tones. A bit of a breakthrough really!!
Sorry to bore you with this but I was pretty excited about it. Cheers Rob

Hi Karen - thanks for your lovely comment. I was just explaining to Suzanne about this image. Rather than retype it all I wonder if you might like to read my response to her about this image.
I was really pleased with it and with some others taken at the same time. My IR camera and I have a long history of weird images ....
Thanks again. Cheers Rob

Definitely a MUST view on black, so atmospheric.

Feels like a cold quiet morning

Wonderful mist. I’d love to see it shot from the other side of the fence post

@jgpittenger Hi jane. Thanks for your suggestion. I was actually walking up the track trying to get the IR camera to co-operate when I took this. So, I do have quite a few from the other side of the gate post. I'l post one of them tomorrow. Cheers Rob

That looks a bit chilly. But then, we had 7C this morning and here it is supposed to be summer :-)

Beautifully captures the cold and damp well done Rob, I love the results captured with my IR converted camera but lots don't:)

Very moody , nice use of the morning light.

To answer your question yesterday, the moors are about 20 min journey onto the Moortop from the NorthEast coastline.

Very intriguing image and hauntingly beautiful!

@pcoulson Hi Peter. Thanks so much for your comment. I was interested to hear that you also have an IR camera. I'll keep an eye out for any IR photos you post - would love to see one.
I'm sure you are much more proficient using yours - mine is still very much hit and miss. And it definitely did not like doing the auto focus in these light conditions. But when it did behave the images it produced were more like b&w than usual. I find it endlessly interesting.... Cheers Rob

@craftymeg Thanks for your reply Margaret. You live in such an interesting place when you can go from one scene to a totally different one in 20minutes. So many great photo opportunities... Thanks again. Cheers Rob

Great shot

@helstor365 That's crazy Helge - Summer has no right being 7deg...
June 9th, 2024  
Nice capture!
June 10th, 2024  
Love the image, esp the chain and catch. Is that frost on the ground or just the image process? Had to google IR camera to try and figure out what you were talking about.

Very mysterious and moody!
