Frost and Fog - A New Year's Day Tale

Shooting landscapes in frost and fog.

I can’t remember being so pleased to see the back end of a year like I did 2020. The New Year may not have brought the greatest of changes but there is hope - vaccines, testings and such. Regardless, the weather here played its part in a memorable start with freezing fog on the higher ground of the Surrey Hills. Welcome to Hascombe Hill.

I am most definitely a street photographer but any photography is better than no photography and, given that lockdown meant no visiting town and city streets, I enjoyed the chance to slow down and shoot some landscape images to start 2021.

The fog had really sucked the tonal range from the colour. I shot in RAW with the intention of processing in black and white to show the forms. However, there is something in the colour images which I also like. Which do you prefer?
