WEEKLY CHALLENGE # 352 - Fog and Mist
Posted By: Bruce Clark, 05-31-2016, 12:57 AM

Having been handed the chalice, I looked back through the challenges for the last 12 months or so looking for a topic that had not been used. As I have always preferred landscapes this provided me with too wide a gamut. To narrow the field but still leave it wide open for interpretation I settled on Fog and Mist. Go out and get some of that cold clammy stuff between your lens and subject. Good luck you have 7 days or June 7th Australian Eastern Standard time. Here are a couple from my collection as a starter. Stardard contest rule below







Everyone is eligible as long as the photo is captured with a Pentax/Ricoh/Samsung camera.

Rules
1. Post ONE photo (max 1024x1024).
2. The photo must portray an interpretation of the theme.
3. Post your single picture in this thread and explain what motivated you to take the picture and/or how you feel it represents the weekly theme (especially if it's not obvious).
4. The challenge is interactive. Any response is welcome.
5. The judge will pick the WINNERS and choose one of them to be the judge for the next week.
6. This challenge runs for 7 days plus an additional day for the judge to choose the winners.
7. Any Pentax (or Ricoh DSLR ) camera can be used.
8. Pictures can be from any time frame, not just within the week of the current theme.
9. In case the winner of a challenge is unable to become the judge for the next challenge, they will PM the #2 winner for that person to be the judge.

Thanks very much for the excellent challenge.

Except for a bit of cropping from the left, this JPEG is straight out of my K-x. The man stepped into the morning scene after I started capturing images.

Great theme, Bruce, and super shots already. I've a recent fog picture that, when shooting, was very eerie. Dense shifting fog, very quiet except for the clicking of the slowly revolving vanes, which vanished into the mist. And all the while, the click-click-click...

Hard working lobster fishermen.

The men and women of the Saugus Ma. lobster fleet go out early in the morning in all kinds of weather to bring back the lobsters that many of us in the Northeast enjoy.--charliezap

Ok I was going to use this challenge to go out and take pictures... and I did... just couldn't find any mist! The Chattahoochee would be the only source of mist around here in this time of the year, but the mornings have been bright and clear... so I have to pick a shot from a few weeks ago.
