Re: foggy dawn
Paul; I like the first one; very evocative and moody. I think the black and white treatment works extremely well and the simple composition is perfect.
The second is good but the puddles in front draw my eye and I suspect it would be stronger without them.
Overall well worth waking up early

Re: foggy dawn
I too like the first. There is a bit of mystery there, not knowing or being able to make out just what the three objects in the fog are. A nice leading line allows you to find them and then....wonder. Nicely done.

Re: foggy dawn
The first image is simpler but the composition doesn't quite work for me. The second one is more complexed and the foreground ponds seem to block my visual flow into it and along the farm road. If the ponds are cropped out so the image starts at the base of the mound the left tree is on then the picture really works for me.
As an aside I find there are far to many people claiming to be Paul on this site so it would be less confusing if the rest of you uses a different name.
Thanking you all in advance,
PAUL

Re: foggy dawn
I like both of them, although I do prefer the simplicity of the first. I tend to agree with previous posts, a bit of cropping would help the second image.
I love shooting in the mist, I would have been out myself yesterday, but I had to repair the shed roof after the storm earlier in the week.
regards
