Geese at dawn

Posted yesterday a quite “misty” picture. Today one more :-) The morning mist in Haarlem. Those mist “blankets” are in Twente, were I was born, called “Witte Wieven” (White Woman).

Today I didn’t (don’t) have much time for TL as normal, so no extensive note. Took this picture last summer the meadow behind my apartment in Haarlem on the break of day. Those geese woke me up so what’s better on such a terrific start of the day than to grab the camera and start making pictures of he first light.

Hope you like I and if not tell me why and how to improve.

Well hello neighbour :-)

Lovely capture here, full of atmosphere and an image that really draws me in. Lovely lighting and tones and good addition with the geese as they give an additional viewpoint.

TFS regards smurfie

Hello Hans.
Nice morning shot.Favourable short fog effect,and early view of geese under it..Perhaps you could shot it looking a little more to the left,to show the sunrise,but I like the photo this way too.TFS.
Un saludo.

Beautiful capture with great mood and strong composition. Well framed.

TFS,
David

Hallo Hans,

Wat een heerlijk romantische foto. De ganzen maken het geheel nog boeiender. Voor zo'n plaatje wil ik ook wel wakker worden :-) Erg mooi hoe het licht en kleuren langzaam in elkaar overgaan.

TFS Groetjes Simone

Hans

Hello Hans,

Hello Hans,

Documentation of an early morning beauty is marvellous in this shot. Higher illumination, mid mist and lower wet with life are providing a fabulous charm. Well done my friend.

Thanks for sharing this image.

Hallo Hans,
Mooie foto van die door witte wieven toegedekte ganzen. Ik heb zitten puzzelen waar dit kan zijn. Eerst dacht ik aan de Vondelweg, maar daar herinner ik me niet zo'n bomenrij. Waarschijnlijk ergens aan de rand van Schalkwijk.
groet Rob

Bonsoir Hans
which seizing photography, this fog which seems to extend its coat on the meadows behind at home and of a blow, appearance of these geese so mysterious. Very pretty colours of the sky in background. Bravo.
Corinne

This is so sweet. I love mists and fogs (just not right now as everything is B&W in our world and finding colour in the mist is challenging.)It looks as if the little geese are ducking under the layer. I love the sky and how beautiful the tree line is against it. Very nice.

Great capture!
The composition here is superb (great example of thirds) and the mistiness adds a superb texture

Hi Hans,

Haha, I was just commenting on your other posting on how a panoramic view would have been more appropriate. And see this one! :-) Nice one with the low mist, the geese and the lines and shades in the field.

Greetz! Dennis

Hi Hans,
Very misty scene! I love the color of the light and the crop.
lovely frame

Great layers captured in low light.
My personal recent attempt at sunrise low light photos resulted in less sharp images than I wanted. I might have to experiment with manual focus more -- but it's hard to see in low light. In your case is it high ISO or focus that makes the focus soft? TFS. K2
