I arrived before dawn in order to capture the light as it filtered through the clouds. I was not expecting to be surrounded by such a thick fog, so viscous that it was palpable. I could see the sediments that floated around and enveloped the landscape as well as myself. The light slowly appeared, peeling off the layers of fog one at a time, leaving the mist that created a mystical, phantasmagorical fantasy setting. This cited me a more clear view, inviting me to see the birds and not too distant trees and brush.
