Idea 3 Timing it right

Out at midday

Morning light might be lovely and soft, but you can’t always get out first thing. Fog and mist can appear at any time of day, so don’t be afraid to use a filter in the middle of the day. Here, overcast light and a central composition creates an incredibly simple shot that’s calming to behold. We used a focal length of 28mm to compress the scene. The final effect looks slightly surreal, but it still illustrates the effect well. Filter used: Mist stripe exposure: 1/160 sec, f/14, ISO100 edit: Exposure +0.45, Highlights +38, Contrast +90, Shadows -78
