Excellent fog and snow while driving from Mqt to Baraga. This lake was fogged like a sonofagun - I drove by thinking "must stop, must stop", usually I don't and regret it; this time I stopped. I trudged through the snow berm sinking to my knees, got over it, looked up, saw the tree, and said "Ohhhhhhhhh, *that* is mine".
Overcast, very very foggy, rain, - lovely weather. Backed down on the exposure two stops to compensate for snow and fog.
I think the iso rating lies - I didn't change it from 200 but exif says 640, hmmmm.

Thank you everyone for the great comments, I really do appreciate!
wow.... im really dissapointed this didn't score higher, what a top shot... congrats... i really apreciate you stopping in the cold weather...thanks...
Now, this is a b/w study to my liking. The tree dominates with its many branches and the snow quietly fading in the distance. Like food for the soul. Bumping up.
Misty/foggy shoreline in background helps to cause just the right amount of mystery/curiosity to the overall image. The tree is great. Don't think you could get it any sharper. Almost looks like it was cut out and added to the photo. Very very nicely done. My compliments on a job well done !!
Nice winter scene. I like the single bare tree. The foggy background is very chilling to me, being from the South. I like the deep black of it too which helpsk create high contrast, without going overboard.
Solitary foggy misty tree on a shoreline. Great capture, I like how you have the whole tree. There is a bit of a halo around the trunk of the tree but thats just being nitpicky. Great capture
I like those strong visual shots with stong clean shapes/lines that are color but could easily pass for B&W because only those two colors dominate the scene. The stark, white groundplane and background compliment this barren tree by making it pop off the page. My only critique is that I would have changed the angle slightly so that the eye doesn't have the distracting element of the some buildings which are visible on the far right hand side. Just a solid, clean, fully uncluttered white static background really complements the main subject - the tree.
