The silence is overwhelming when you are embraced in a good fog. At Valley Forge the other morning, all I could hear was the click of the shutter from "James Dean". Maybe a stray honk of a goose in distance. Well, there was that dog I could hear barking too. A bit muddy, so my boots squished a little. But when everything else is shielded from sight by a blanket of fog, you can imagine most anything. And believe me...I can do that.

Still experimenting on how to shoot in foggy conditions, so welcome home "James Dean". You were missed.

Beautiful Kathy, just beautiful...I'm finally getting around to sharing the rest of mine on Thursday...the fog was so thick I had a hard time seeing twenty feet in front of me. Love this Valley Forge place, breathtaking!!
ReplyDeleteSoo pretty! I love the 2nd one - I love the colors & feel of that shot. I love fog shots- you can just feel the weather in those photos!
ReplyDeleteI totally got goosebumps looking at these! I was trying to visualize the troops there ages and ages ago!
ReplyDeleteAmazing shots Kathy!!! I def need to go check out that spot!
ReplyDeleteNot sure I've ever seen photos of Valley Forge, but you did a good job shooting it in the fog.
ReplyDeleteWonderful cabin and great photos of it. Would be an inspiring place for artists and writers too.
ReplyDeleteLovely! I do enjoy the chance to get out and stretch my camera's legs somewhere beautiful. Well shot!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots, very very beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThere is just something extra that birds bring to a landscape / architectural picture. Very pretty!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing, I am in awe.

I love how you boosted the colors in the landscapes to contrast the grayness of the fog. Lovely!
ReplyDeleteInterestingly enough, I didn't boost any colors in the landscapes. The color of the grasses were just that darn vibrant. I've never noticed grasses those colors before.
DeleteThose are the nicest photos; so interesting and so poignant.
ReplyDeleteI was at Valley Forge in 1976, when I was in ROTC. Of course, I saw it from a different perspective then. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteKathy these are fabulous. Great Americana series.
ReplyDeleteStunning photos! My favorite is of the cabin with the bare tree and flock of birds. Valley Forge is going on my list of places to visit!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous contrasts in this beautiful log building in the fog! Valley Forge... What history! Love your shots
ReplyDeleteGreat shots! You did a really lovely job of capturing the atmosphere!
ReplyDeleteLove that last one Kathy!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous shots...oh, how I love fog and the way it envelops you. The silence inside fog is deafening, if that makes sense. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteNice pictures.
ReplyDeleteLike how the details of the log is shown in the 4th picture.
Beautiful shots Kathy. Happy Trails to you and James :)
ReplyDeleteThese photos are so sharp. Great job Kathy. I have never been there. Makes me want to see it for sure!
ReplyDeleteHi Kathy, I did an engagement session at Valley Forge National Park. It was a lot of fun.
ReplyDeleteShooting in the fog is my absolute favorite. Very beautiful pictures.
I am in love with that cabin...what great texture and character and you captured it beautifully.
