Misty Morning in Farm Country
After just missing sunrise the past couple of weekends, I finally pulled myself out of bed at 5:30 am to not only catch the early morning sky, but to also capture some wonderful pastoral images featuring mist in the lowland farm fields.
Dawn on the north shore of Rice Lake at Bellmere Winds Resort.
Leaving the cottage, I drove north of Highway 7 through the hamlet of Indian River. I flipped a mental coin and turned left at the end of Indian River Line and came across this single lane bridge, spanning (you guessed it) the Indian River.
Every year, I make a point capturing the "marshmallow harvest" on Villiers Line and this year I also had the bonus of morning mist.
On another whim, I turned onto a road I've never driven, Douro Road 3, and within a few minutes, came across this stunning vista. Next to rows of crops, nothing says farm country like cows roaming in a mist-shrouded field.
I hope you've enjoyed this morning jaunt and it's helped you remember (like me) that getting up early can have great photographic rewards.
