Solitude in Yellow

[Mike Mancil]

Fog is nature's sound proofing and on this Fall day all that met the ear was the occasional leaf that settled to the ground.

D700, Nikkor 24-70 f/2.8 at f/3.2, 1/100 sec, ISO 800, 50mm, hand held.

I like this - the combination of fall colors, the fog, and one falling leaf is very easy on the eyes and invites a longer look.

Wonderful soft colors in a beautiful fall scene. Is there much noise when viewed at full rez? I know the D700 is supposed to be very good at higher ISOs.

A painterly look. A wall hanger for sure.

The D700 is a classic that is excellent at higher ISOs. I still have this body but now use the D750. Both perform better than me.

A painterly look. A wall hanger for sure.

I love the mood the fog conveys. Beautiful, Mike.

Beautiful image Mike....nice soft light.

Thanks to you all. This was at a scenic view on a motor trail in the Smokies. Fog obscured the outward view and thankfully turned my attention to the trees close at hand... Mike

Beautiful.

Wow Mike, this is wonderful! What great atmosphere.

The old cameras can still put out. I have been thinking on getting a D700 again. My old one went swimming so it's not working. But it was a fun camera.

Congrats on the Daily Featured Post Mike!

 

[Jim Dockery]

Very nice. A tighter crop into the center could be good also to put more focus on the falling leaf.
