Hi Christian
back to your landscapes, those where you excel, with a clear attraction for the foggy ones
The blue atmosphere and the 2 little houses hardly visible cooperate with the trees for a very pleasant compo
Bravo

Hi Christian (The Mist Man)
Lovely blue tones and I really like the way the second tree is just peeking through. This photo would have also worked really well as a panorama without the clouds and openings in the sky up the top.
Regards

Hi Christian,
love the foggy blue atmosphere here. Very dark and moody but quite peaceful at the same time.

Hi Christian,
A mysterious shot with all that thick fog and the deep blue colour. Love the clouds at the top and the little house that we can just make out through the fog.

A mysterious atmosphere in this great composition. Great management of the difficult light conditions. Very well presented.

Hallo christian,
wie immer kannst Du mit Deiner Kamera und vor allem mit Deinem photographischen Auge Lichtschichten aufnehmen, die eine wunderschoene Tiefe hervorbringen. Beinah ein Duotone, diese Farben...
schoenes Wochenende!

Ciao Christian,
I like your photos of Carinthia in the fog. Then, I am happy when comes the autumn!
Magnificent blue world and great composition, the horizontal foreground is well structured with the vegetation and the houses. There is a beautiful balance with the trees which appear vertically.
Bravo!
Have a nice sunday

Hi Christian
An unusual nature event you've in front of your eyes! The shot was surely difficuly by the lack of light. You get 3 different plans well marked and diffrenet huesof black and grey, though it's a colour picture.

Hi Christian
Oh Autumn is here isn't it with the advent of early morning fog. An excellent capture with one tree and building in the fog and one just in front. Nicely done.

Hi Christian,
When I see the picture in the gallery I think it was a sea of clouds,in spite of your title,I must read more carefully..;)
The natural phenomenons that you show us in your shot are still fascinating me.I'm ready,I'm in the mood of autumn..
Hugs,
Sonsoles

La Carinzia .. e la nebbia che inghiotte i paesaggi!!
E' una cosa che turba un pochino.
Ciao Christian, bravissimo!!

hey chrisrian..
you are pulling off some decent nature shots off your macro..but i think the colours are a bit soft..the saturation could be cranked up a bit..
love the artistic intent in the final presentation in this one..te tones of blue are hauntin..a large print on a clear wall could take ones breath away..skip a beat may be
good stuff my friend

Bonsoir Christian
Superbe contraste du premier plan sombre avec la dominante bleue de cette image,une petite touche de lueur chaude dans dans les nuages donne un bon équilibre à cette composition.
Bonne soirée

Hi Christian
Yet another elegant capture of landscape from you. Half mystic, half celebration of the sobriety. Your composition does not proclaim its qualities, but despite a humility that does not make it shine in thumbnail, it gives the shiver of an halleluia when we see it in full size. The hues are superb and you know, only like a few of us (along with mistral and leo61) to play skilfully with the fog. congratulations!
Regards
Marine

I like the intense blue, Christian, and I like your composition with the ideal placement of the two solitary trees. It very much captures the feel of a cold, damp, still morning. Regards, Ken.

Hi Christian.
Why is this photo not between my favourites? Because I cannot add more pictures.
Great and beautiful work.
Carlos.

Ciao Christian
bellissime le tonalità cupe in questa foto, con la nebbia che lentamente si impossessa di ogni forma di vita. Bravo a realizzare questo scatto!

Not sure about the high frame, but the contrast between dramatic sky and peaceful ground is very nice as it is entirely the mood of the picture.
