A few minutes after I shot Foggy Sunrise 1, I thought the spectacle was over. Walking around to the right I was able to capture this unexpected bonus shot (lesson: it’s not over until it is over). The cone of sunlight is again interrupted by the shadows of tree branches. Photographing from the side creates more of a conventional sunburst effect. This shot also captures more of the surroundings and conveys the mood of the foggy scene.
Wow! I live in DuPage County and really appreciate the effort to capture the fog, sunbeams and other elements in our "neighborhood." I really like this one.
Thanks for your kind comment Chuck. I look forward to the day when COVID restrictions are lifted and we can get together again for in person meetings at MAPS.
