Misty morning

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

That isn't fog, that's atmosphere! :wink:
I like the first one. Is that the butchering tree? Looks like a rope on the branch to lift the beast for butchering. It needs either the beast on the rope or the rope gone as I find the rope slightly distracting. A misty beastie in the background would be nice, but overall, nice soft (but sharp :wink:) images. Thank you.

I like both of these, Actually I don't find the rope distracting at all. With the absence of any other point of interest, the eye naturally comes to rest there and it makes you think of what it may have been used for. If anything I would have liked to see it a little more prominent by using a wider angle lens and getting closer to it.

Thanks everyone for your kind comments - could've knocked me over with a feather when I was hoping for a beautiful sunrise and got fog :) The second shot was taken with my very old very second hand Tokina 12m wide angle lens -very manual, and I've never taken a good shot with it. Was going to get rid of it, and thought I'd have one more try - this was it .....
think i might keep it ;)
