There were none of life's insignificata to fend off today, and the intended early start was no problem. As predicted by the weather people (makes a change) the day dawned with heavy mist, and by 7:30am I was already walking the New Forest in search of suitable subject matter; and today it didn't disappoint. Having made a number of "warm-up" shots while the rising sun began to burn off the mist, I eventually come across a mare and her foal (image) and begin to shoot in earnest. From my point of view, early starts and light like this make it all worth while. Although to a large degree the subject plays a major role in the image, it's also just as valid to photograph the light, which can make or break a picture. In this case, it works.
Nikkor 300mm f/2.8 lens. 1/640 sec at f/2.8. ISO 250.
