Foggy winter days in the forest can yield some of the prettiest views to be found anywhere. Such was the case a couple of days ago here in northeast Minnesota. We've had temperatures quite a bit warmer than usual for December which meant that we had some really thick fog up in the forest away from Lake Superior. I had a lot of fun making photos of the foggy views in the maple forests of Grand Portage. It was hard to actually get anywhere because I kept stopping to take so many photos! Eventually I had to force myself to slow down and really look before making a picture. Once I slowed down I started to notice that my images were coming out much nicer. It always pays to stop and think about what you're doing before you actually make a photograph. You would think that after 20 years of making images that I would remember that, but sometimes I get caught up in the moment and need to be reminded of it :-)
