As autumn transitions into winter here on Vancouver Island in the Pacific Northwest, I love to photograph the changing landscapes with their subtle palettes and hushed tones as the mist drifts through the trees and over still waters.
And on misty mornings, Somenos Marsh—a beautiful wetland conservation area my family and I discovered right next to the highway—has become one of my favorite natural sanctuaries where I can let my eyes rest on scenes like this, with its peaceful reflections and a backdrop of softened undulations, the drone of traffic fading away with the morning’s magenta murmurings.
