mist at dawn

Straight out of the camera, this scene appears to be shades of black and white.

When I reduce the saturation to zero in Lightroom, any hint of colour is removed and the image looks like this:

So what is the colour that tints the original image? I took the image into PhotoShop to take a closer look. With the colour selector dialogue box open, I can use the eyedropper tool to click on an area of the image to see what colour that pixel or pixels hold. To which colour do you think the grey shades are related?

on the way to the vet in the next town, Lindor & I took a quick break at Jackfish Lake. The morning mist was still rising from the surface of the lake. Thankfully, I had my camera gear along (surprised?)

Grasses along the shore are shadowed colouring them darker shades of gold, red and brown.

unexpected

Typically, the first thing I do each morning is peak out my east facing bedroom window to see what kind of day to expect. Not so typical was the sun as it rose over the hangar yesterday!
