There wasn’t much evidence of fog during my ride to New Salem this morning. But the NOAA site said there would be some and, sure enough, they were right. Just in the valleys but that allowed for some nice landscape layering. There was little color to be seen in the shadows but this seemed better suited for black and white anyway.
This is a view I have shot and posted often in the past and likely will do so in the future. The more you visit a spot the better you get to know it and just as importantly the more opportunities for something a little different. There is better detail in the shadows if you click to enlarge.
Like islands in the sky. And yes, the enlarged view reveals many more details in the forest in the foreground.

This spot offers those “islands” on most any foggy morning.

I like the fern-like fringe along the edge of the foreground trees.

Thanks. Deciding on the crop was a challenge.

Your monochrome-like photo gives the impression of two islands in the distance with the ocean hidden by the dense fog.

I’ve seen similar to your description while at the Maine coast, Peter. It is not unusual for this scene to occur from this vantage point as this is a watershed feeding a reservoir so lots of moisture coming up into the cool morning air.
