Valley of Dreams, a photo from California, West

Photographer's Note

This image was taken not far from where I live in one of my favorite sunrise go to spots. When fog blankets the valleys below its a stunning sight. A sight I never grow tired of seeing come to life.

Hi Mike,
That's a truly beautiful photo.
I like the mist and the curves of the hills. The few trees give a focus point.

Perfect title, Mike - the way the mists hug the hills leaving the crest of each exposed and stretching out infinitely across the horizon creates a really nice dreamlike quality to this shot. Perfect sunrise lighting really does reveal this landscape nicely, with some great silhouetted trees as well. Beautifully done.

Hello Mike ,
I'm allways impressed by the pictures of fog . This one is really outstanding . The bosket , the lonely trees , and the soft curves of the hills , appearing layer after layer , towards the red sky in the BG .
Splendid !

The fog blankets create a very peaceful atmosphere ! The hills from foreground to background add some depth to the composition. Very beautiful colours too. Very well done !

Hi Mike

This is simply stunning. You have captured the mood perfectly. I always find photos of misty valleys like this the most difficult to take - you have turned it into a piece of art.

Hello Mike
I can understand you would never tire of such a magical sight completely stunning.
You have framed it perfectly with the hint of sky at the top of the frame. The sharpness and clarity of the rolling hills and trees against the dreamy rolling mists is wonderful
Thanks for sharing
