Oaks In The Fog III
Another perspective of California Oaks in the fog. This was taken the same day as Oaks In The Fog and Oaks In The Fog II. I think this may be my favorite of the trio. I know this won’t appeal to many as a front and center show piece, but I like the subtlety of the scene. Perhaps this is destined for stock photography, but I have hopes that this will appeal to those with an eye for fine art photography as well. Time will tell.

This and Foggy Oaks are my favorites. I kind of see them in a diptych display. Or if you continue working on the theme as a triptych.

[...] Yet another perspective of California Oaks in the fog. This was taken the same day as Oaks In The Fog, Oaks In The Fog II and Oaks In The Fog III.

California Oaks are a very challenging subject to photograph as the branches jut everywhere and lining up an area of compositional focus can be difficult. For this shot I really wanted to take advantage of the heavy fog to highlight a flat shape of the tree trunk. Opening up the aperture allowed me to keep the depth of field shallow also adding to the effect. With in seconds the fog started to lift enough to reveal more detail on the tree trunk, but I think I like this one best. [...]
