[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
An early start to a long drive.
A dawn stop near Goroke in Victoria.
A 200 m drive off the road into a dry red-gum swamp to watch the dawn break the fog lingering amongst the trees.
A 300 mm zoom lens helps me peer into the far depths to see the sun burn the fog. Minutes later and it is all gone and the drive continues.

Dear Barry
I really like this photo. Every detail has purpose, light, mood, placement, subject ... all. You have an artist's touch here. I will now take the time to review your other works as they may be just as interesting and artistic as this one. Thank you! Prof. Thomas

Amazing atmosphere in this picture. The 300mm lense probably adds to ther mysterious and intimate feel of the photo. Good job.

When I saw the thumbnail I thought WOW, now that I have opened the larger version of your photo I am still impressed, I thought I should ask for your permission to use your photo as a reference for a painting but I don't think I could do it justice! I have now had a look at your other photos and I like them all. TFS
