Rising Mist

Rising Mist by PatrickSmith
The last light of the day came through a hole in the clouds at the 2300 foot level of Mt. Diablo, 20 miles east of San Francisco. I waited for the light to illuminate the farm house and some of the misty clouds. After I took the shot I uploaded last week, I ran further up the hill looking for a good chunk of lichen covered rock to include. I found it and waited. It almost never happened, but for a minute or so, it was like this. I'll admit that luck played a large part in getting this shot!
Things are drying up now so I may only have 2-3 more weeks of green grass before the dry season takes over. So I hope to get a few more like this.
Also, my company is being reorganized, so I may not be on EPZ as much as I would like for the next couple of months. But I'll check EPZ as much as I can and I'll still try to upload at least one per week.
1 second exposure @F16 with ND grad 0.9

You think so Dave?
Thanks Adrian. True, I did wait for clouds that possibly might do this, and I did climb over 1,000 feet to get to this spot, and I did compose it. But if it wasn't for this one minute of light, I would have come back home with only the one previously uploaded shot in a few versions!
Angela, why is she afraid? It won't bite! Will she live in the city? Where I live, (20 miles away) I rarely see fog and it gets nice and hot in the summer half of the year.
LOL - Kath!
Yes Cathy, it did look like steam was rising from a volcano or something. I rarely see that here.

Thankyou for your comments,much appreciated.I did use layers,on each flower individually then merged them all together using photomerge and filled in the blank space with the bg colour of the flowers.

Thanks for your comments. It will take me a while to catch up, but I will!
Janet, that may be true now, but it will look a lot different in a month or two. It wil be bone dry up here, so I'm getting my green grass shots now.
Greg, you should get more clouds in Seattle than down here. So you have a good chance for something like this. Can't give you any hints about where to go though. I've never been there.
Ann, that must have created quite a large file until you flattened it!
Thanks Martin for the nice comments...lol...
Terry, I'll show you how to do it when you move back up here. Though we may not have clouds by the time you arrive.
Dennis, it is a great spot, but it does take a long time to reach this spot. And the grass is turning brown now, so you may want to wait until next winter.

Sorry for late comment patrick, but time seems to slip by.
This appeals to me as I am a fan of moody clouds. Lots of photographers attempt to get the bright fluffy blue clouds, but I like the more stormy/heavy feel which this has. The UK has this type of clouds more than most. Catching the light coming through adds to the whole image.
