John, those are stunning fog shots, I feel cold just looking at them. Very dramatic indeed. Your dedication paid off  . Looks like a scene from the film of the same name - the original one by John Carpenter. Either section is fine, however this section seems most appropriate I reckon. Thanks for sharing those. |

Totally agree with Martin & Roman, They are great shots John... Looks like a lovely place to watch the sun rise or set and the trees popping out of the fog is so spooky...  |

Thanks, glad you liked them. It's quite a steep climb up there but a great view. There are pheasants, partridge and deer living in that countryside and it takes me 5 minutes in the car to get to the hill and 7 minutes from the car to the summit so it's on the doorstep really. I looked at the night sky last night for a photo,got to start sometime Lol..but the moon was very bright and I decided to do an early rise, for the fog, well sort of early for me, rather than hang about waiting for the moon to clear the skies.
