Maybe John Carpenter's The Fog.......................

Nice shots.

**MSL** · 02-10-2014, 06:42 AM

Very interesting framing on the second image. Glad you shared these.

I love the first one bud, a real standout, you're the man when it comes to bw, so cool. One hell of a movie also.

**rbefly** · 02-10-2014, 08:46 AM

Very nice photos, Jer! The first one just needs a spooky figure shambling through the mist...or maybe Bogie near a lamppost, smoking.
We're getting that cold mist and fog here today, unusual for this area. I might just have to get out with a fast lens, myself!
Thanks for posting,
Ron

Great shots, the first one is so moody. I expect to see something coming out of the mist.

Jer - sounds like you need a remote trigger that can work at a distance so you can frame yourself somewhere in the shot!

Very nice photos!

Enjoyed these Jer. The first one especially stands out.

**Kerrowdown** · 02-10-2014, 12:26 PM

Wow that first image remind me of the movie the Exorcist, spooky.

Thanks, EM. I've never read The Fog nor seen movie versions, so it didn't occur to me

Hey, Bob, thanks much, as always. Believe it or not, I'd not seen the movie until about two weeks ago - even with the '70s era production feel, it is one chilling movie for sure

. Consequently, the phrase, "play misty for me", materialized in my brain the moment I pulled the camera to my eye.

Thanks very much, Ron. I would loved to have had an assistant to act as Bogie! Luckily, this was a warm rather than a cold fog, thus I could hand hold the camera at 1/15s without shaking too much (the 1/30 I specified in the heading is inaccurate).

Thank you

. I think lots of movies and books have trained us to expect "something" to emerge from the mist; perhaps that in this shot that "something" stealthily stalks from behind the wall of mist adding tension to the photo. OK, OK . . . . my wife didn't buy that line either

That's exactly what I needed, my friend

. It would have been a terrific self portrait - I'd portray myself as a skinny George Smiley

I'm glad you liked 'em, Susan. I haven't shot in the fog for a long while - I enjoyed it (thank goodness it was about 65F).
