 WOW, never expected this. Been a long, long time since I have won a ribbon. Thanks everyone for the votes.

This was a magical light moment as I was driving one cold early morning a week or so ago. I saw the fog and the rays and just snapped a few images through a wire fence.

I honestly believe there were stronger images than this one, but appreciate the ribbon nonetheless.

Congratz on 2nd place. It's a beautiful image in it's own right but to me it does not meet the challenge requirement that light and shadow vie with each other for attention. At least not the way I envisioned it.

Beautiful use of sun and silhouette.
What's with the sky in the upper left looking all grey and weird? Did you go a bit over with vignette and highlights controls to do that?

Fog? Check. Sun beams? Check. Shadows? Check. Beautiful setting? Check. Lovely image. The wall in the middle mars the natural tranquility a bit :-(
