This is the one thing I was really dying to see, the fog on the water in the cypress forest. Luckily we woke up to a morning of 50F and that was a very good thing! When we arrived at our launch point the water was covered in fog. We had about a 25 minute trip to our shooting location, which we did in the pitch black. The fog was dense enough that my headlamp made it too blinding to actually see. I just stuck close to a few others who used their lights 🤣

I have to give a huge thanks to for a great workshop. Chris purchased his own canoes which meant that we all got to use the same canoe for the whole trip. No need to learn a different size or shape, and they were wide and extremely stable on the water. His prep was definitely the class of the field. Sitting amongst all those trees and trying to find compositions can be a little overwhelming, Chris provided excellent guidance the whole time. Thank you also to and who assisted on the workshop. You two along with Chris provided a lot of great information for what I found out was some of the most difficult landscape photography I have ever done. I’m looking forward to doing it again next year.

Meanwhile, back on Martha's Vineyard, people are still shell fishing all year round. The drone offers a very cool perspective on people foraging for themselves.

My first sunset on Caddo Lake. Nothing like taking your maiden voyage out in a kayak with all your gear and no dry bag 🤣. No problem, the kayaks that Chris Byrne Photography supplied are solid and stable. Looking forward to this workshop!

Finally finding a way in the fog. Where I live, the fog always hits when I can't get out. Luckily I got some great shots this time out. Sitting in a location watching the fog roll in and out is pretty wild and a real test of patience. This might be one of my first photos that I felt was "art worthy".
