Magic Hour Travelscapes

Kootenay Plains, John Thompson Country

Morning mist on the plains. This was taken on the last day of Darwin Wiggett's workshop. The sunrise colours never eventuated but the heavy mist perhaps created a more unique atmosphere than a colourful sunrise. Exposure was rather challenging once the sun came up and I have opted to present this as a darker scene. As one of my fellow workshop members commented, the mystery is "Where the heck have all the mountains gone?" The area is in fact ringed by mountains.
