A foggy day on Lulu Island

in #hive-1949132 years ago

Lulu Island is an island immediately south of Vancouver, Canada, encompassing the vast majority of the City of Richmond. It's where I've lived for most of my life. We have a beautiful system of dykes with nature trails built on top, looking out across the Sturgeon Banks Natural Area and Strait of Georgia. On a good day you can see the mountains of Vancouver Island... but on a foggy day it's just as amazing for photography, if not better. Below are four photos I made during a beautiful foggy morning last month!

Spell of the Songbird (2022)

Be sure to click to view this one big! Can you spot the bird on the branch and the spiderweb? I didn't actually notice either of them when shooting - they were a very pleasant surprise when I loaded up the raw files for editing!

EXIF: 200mm, f/11, 1/200s, ISO 200

Future Mourning (2022)

The contrast of the yellow autumn leaves and cool fog and tree limbs really caught my eye here.

EXIF: 110mm, f/10, 1/30s, ISO 100

Slow Dance (2022)

I love seeking order in chaos when making my photographs. This image is no exception to that with branches everywhere, various colors and high texture levels. It's a satisfying feeling when you can pull a bunch of otherwise messy elements together, balance them out and create something coherent out of it. The curve of the tree made me think of a dancer. Just like photography, dancing is all about balance.

EXIF: 110mm, f/10, 1/25s, ISO 100

Kaleidoscopic Gods (2022)

This particular image really stands out in my portfolio - it's bright and warm. Typically I'm more drawn to dark and moody. But there are exceptions to every rule!

EXIF: 85mm, f/10, 1/25s, ISO 100

I hope you all enjoyed these images and would love to know which is your favorite. Don't hesitate to ask if you've got any questions!

I also like foggy days for special photos

They are the best days for photos I think!

Some gorgeous atmosphere in these shots, Tristan! I especially love "Slow Dance", both in concept and execution. All of these could be paintings! Well done as always!

Thank you Jess! Glad you like that one :)

Super gorgeous set of image here man!
