Kerry: I love this photo. The way the light is backlighting the leaves and the misty background is perfect. I have been studying how the light comes through the leaves and trying to capture it, but you captured it just right. I look through your photos when I need to slow down, relax and get my thoughts together. They have a calming effect for me. #9259

Hi Kerry. This photo is very mysterious and mind provoking. I anticipate something unseen preparing to strike... It is amazing how you can capture the real world and make it look so surreal. The background mist looks like rising steam from the middle of the earth... #14819

Hi Donna: I enjoyed reading your thoughts on this photo, and thanks for sharing them! This is one of the reasons I love sunrise; you never know when you'll wake up to mist like this! #14830

Yes, It is my favorite time of the day. I am never ever up any later that 5 am. Well, you are an inspiration to all of us, Kerry. I look foward to seeing more of these surreal visions. #14866

Wow what an outstanding capture. I have never been to good at capturing back lit leaves. The mood you have captured here is wonderful. #161771
