Woke up, looked outside, and saw this wonderful blue fog at pre-dawn. Grabbed the camera & tripod (breakfast can wait!) and headed out the door.

Darn sensor dust already! Had to crop this down. Hope I didn't lose too much from the original composition...liked it better with some distance to the background. Oh, well. ;^)

This reminds me of a place I used to live.. And I miss it too.. I also envy this shot a bit because my camera cant take fog, dust, northern lights, or night pictures.. I wish I would have been around to rate this one! It would have been a straight 10 from me.. Nicely done!
