12.04.2020 Fog Friday-Quabbin Valley and Mount Monadnock

Posted on December 4, 2020 by Steve Gingold

A re-edit from 2015.  I had originally processed in B&W thinking that worked better but now I think I prefer the subtlety of the color. Another view from Enfield Lookout.

    Yeah, let’s hear it for subtle color.
    If you’re willing to go with quarta, which is a common short form of quarta-feira, the Portuguese name for Wednesday, you can have Quabbin Quarta on Wednesdays.

    I like the contrast between the sharply defined trees and the fog. The almost translucent pink and blue, combined with the greenish trees, is a fine variation on fall’s more vibrant red/blue/green.

      The trees were where I focused for just that quality. Nothing else needed to be sharp although I did shoot at f/11. A;though subtle I thought the colors were quite attractive and sufficient. When looking back at the original black and white processing I now wonder what I was thinking. 🙂

    Very nice with that touch of color, I like how it makes the layers more distinctive.

    To me, this is really, really appealing, Steve. It’s all the white surrounding the hills, and those colors. Ahhhh! I can look at this gfor a long time. Another quality I like is that there’s the smooth contour of the distant mountain and the lacy, frayed edges of the hills nearer the viewer. That and the rhythmic to and fro of it all….and, and….
