Very thick mist around here the last few days, here's one I took while walking from my car to my office. Comments and/or criticism are welcome

Lovely subdued colours but like Gareth I would be interested in seeing a mono version. The tiny silhouetted figure makes it for me.

I think mono would work better.

Okay! Mono, mono, mono. It's like a broken record around here

I had much the same advice on another forum

I rather liked the muted colours, but I will try converting to mono, watch this space!

Mono version:




It's okay I suppose and I like a mono as much as the next guy, but in this case I'm not convinced. I've upped the contrast slightly, but I think that might have been a mistake as it makes it look less misty.

Yes, mono's better, I think. Nice shot either way. I must take my camera out more on days like this...
Best wishes,

Mono for me although I agree that mistier is better.
You can see some of my photos here if you are so inclined

I like the colour version best.
The colour gives that little bit of 'sparkle' that is missing in a misty picture.
