Room for one more?
This was taken on a lake, at Oakbank, in the Adelaide Hills, South Australia, Australia. It was early morning, so there was still some mist around, on the lake. Tripod was used. There is nothing better than being up early on a cold winter’s day and being greeted with such a beautiful setting.
A Canon DSLR EOS 350D camera was used. I took this because of the incredible light, mist and mood that it offered. It was also my husband and his sister bonding very early in the morning.

Paul Vanzella
so love the painterly feel here and the mood… quite an exceptional image… the poeple so make it for me!
Elana Bailey replied
Paul, you know this painterly feel was pure light and a natural capture. I understand a little more on how to obtain it digitally now (but you are still the master), so I suppose I was just lucky that morning. The guy standing is my husband and the girl is his younger sister, who was over visiting, from the UK. He almost looks like his is standing and protecting her, or maybe just waiting to see if she rows off and leaves him behind. Many thanks for your kind words.
Paul Vanzella
the people look so posed like in a painting – that’s what I like about it so much – what a magnificent time of the day!
