Fog is one of God’s Photoshop filters. It transforms the way things look. I walk to the barn early every morning to feed the horses. Same walk every day. Except when it’s foggy. Everything is quieter. Even the colors. There are no shadows or highlights. Things are flattened. Patterns and details are blurred into simple shapes. I tend to focus down on these foggy days, see the smaller details close by. Bigger things are pushed away behind screens of mist. It’s a whole different journey then.
This wonderfully delicate spider web is drawn between a 2″x4″ segment of horse fence.
The bare branches of a Red Maple flatten against the gray sky like a huge spider web.
The silhuette of an old apple tree traces a fine web across the flattened solid shape of the woods behind.
The path to the barn becomes a composition of shapes, patterns, and muted colors.
Myrtle trees at the edge of the field become cross-hatched black lines on a flat gray ground.
As the fog clears, highlights and shadows return.
