Description
I was attracted to the scene by the ethereal quality of the light and the simple graphic quality of the setting. The fog aided in softening the light and providing for a clean backdrop to this solitary tree. Northern India sees many foggy days during this period and this gives a beautiful softness to the light in the early mornings. I spent a fair bit of time on this particular morning working the area trying to find a composition I was satisfied with. On my first two attempts earlier that week, fog was present but was far too dense for the sunlight to penetrate through. On my third and final morning returning to the location, everything came together to create a memorable scene. I felt I was rewarded for my persistence and for trusting my gut instincts.
