Yesterday was a little unusual. I woke up earlier than my alarm clock which meant I left the house a little earlier than I expected to. I left with the intention of going to Manassas Battlefield but while I was on the road I realized I would of just waited in the parking lot for about 30 minutes before I’d see any light. So instead of waiting, I thought I’d just go straight to Shenandoah National park and check out the color on the trees.

Most of the trees are still green, a few had color, but I mostly saw fog. As I got higher in the mountain, the foggier it got. It got foggier, windier and rainy. I’ll definitely be back again later in the week to scope out the scene.

This image was taken last year in the Shenandoah Mountains at sunrise. Unfortunately there wasn’t much of a sun because of all the fog, but I’m really starting to get into these fog images. Lately I’ve been noticing myself hoping for it.

I had to post this image because I had a fail this morning. I tried going out for some sunrise images but as soon as I got to my location it started raining, HARD. So, I plan on going out tomorrow and hopefully bringing you guys something very new. In the mean time, I really like the abstractness of this image.

So you may be wondering why I went to Ohio. Well it all started a few months ago when I was thinking about my photography. I thought about the kind of images I wanted and how I could achieve them. For some reason, one of the first things that popped into my head was a hot air balloon festival. As my dad would say, I asked Mr. Google and he told me about the Ohio Challenge.

Who knew hot air balloons were so temperamental. Out of the three times that I went to the festival, I only really got to see the balloons fly once. The air quality and wind depends so much on the flight, it got a bit frustrating, but I’m glad I came out with at least one image.
