My friend J. and I finally got together again to hike in our favorite State Park. She is my hiking buddy whom I told you about here. This year we didn't get together very often, so the more we treasured yesterday's hike.
We started out in the fog, climbed up the hill in the fog. There was absolutely no view, we saw the trail for only a couple hundred yards and it seemed to us that we were almost alone up here (later on we met a few people, though). At the end of the trail there is a beautiful lake where we usually have our picnic. When we arrived there after a 90 minute climb it looked like this:
Then the fog started to lift...
... and revealed the beauty of this place.
All these photos are SOOC.
This was what we saw.
And it was beautiful.

i don't know what sooc means, but i do know what beautiful implies, and you surely captured the mysterious beauty of fog and friendship.
they certainly are beautiful! Love them! I might have to have a go at recreating one or two of those in ink!
Beautiful and mystical!
Beautiful emotive photographs. Like scenes from an art movie!

I love fog. Your photos capture the still and quiet coolness of morning fog. There are so many foggy mornings here in my forest. I enjoy my morning cup of tea watching the fog rise up thru the trees.... but I never think to grab my camera to capture the beauty.
Truly gorgeous. Awesome photos- if it looks this scenic in photos- I can only imagine what reality must have looked like! =)
Mysterious, beautiful and eerie. I felt like a heroine from a Bronte novel should step out. Lovely work, just glorious.
Hey Carola, what beautiful images! Sounds like quite a climb but well worth it with this to enjoy ~ so happy that you shared!
Lovely - and ethereal - and mysterious - and I want to go there NOW :)
Fog adds the wonderful mystery to the scenes, and that special light -- so lovely! So nice to have a hiking buddy.
straight out of the camera...
