This is a tiny extract from a much larger image. It was foggy, what can I do to accentuate the foggy look? What if I crop away everything except this one little section of the shot? Yes, it'll be grainy/noisy, but that's sort of the nature of fog. I turned it into a black and white (again, that's the nature of fog) and then softened the image slightly.
Does it work? Nah, I don't think so, but it's not awful! About 20 years ago I saw the work of a photographer who would photograph architectural detail on buildings, then crop the heck out of the shot, leaving a very grainy, soft image of just one little detail. Toned with a sepia tint, her photos were lovely. Hmmmm . . . another thing for me to try in the near future. ©Carol Leigh

You say this photo doesn't work, but I actually really like. The simplicity of the scene really makes a strong impact in my opinion. Nicely done.
Rodney, nice to see your name come up! Thanks for your feedback on this one. Hmmm, I'm starting to like it more and more! -- Carol Leigh
