DEFINITELY 2, and I think 3. Great shots Virgil!

I'm at work and the pictures won't show for which I blame our IT rep. Will try to get back to them later when the Long Suffering One gives up the box.

#2 and #5 are my favorites. I think technically speaking, #5 has the best composition.

Mmm. I'd love to be somewhere the green and pretty looking right now.

oh i like the number 2...
and the 3th...and the 4th...
and the 5th!! and the 6th!!!

I would go with #6 and #3 as my top two. I also liked # 7. They're all pretty. I love #3 with the crepuscular rays. I love crepuscular rays. And mist. Fog, not so much. I like it, but not if I have to drive thrugh it.

Let us know which one you pick, please, Virgil.

oh! I guess I should start reading the instructions, huh?
My vote would be #2 or # 6. Those two are simply gorgeous.

These are stunning pictures Virgil and it's really difficult to decide. Well I think 3, 5 and 6 are the best.

They're lovely! #5 is my favorite. I can't choose between a second They're all so nice.

3 and 4, I love them so much, I can't decide which is best

I love the second picture!

Love the pictures,

Of those, I liked #3, & #5 the best. Of those two, #3 tops them all because of the way the fog hits that dead oak with the ivy & vines taking over its trunk. There's a mythical life-thrives-on-the-dead feel to it.

There is! It's to do with visibility. If you can see less than a kilometre it's fog, if more than a kilometre it's mist. Accepting that you can't see through the trees visibility isn't too bad, so it's probably mist.

Thank you all, especially Prince for that nice quote. I will have to tabulate which picture got the most votes.

Yes, I guess you're right. It was more of a mist, though it could have burned off by the time I took the pictures. Is there a criteria between mist and fog. ?

#3 and 5 are my favorites (but 4 and 7 come in close) and they're all beautiful . I love foggy mornings and there have been a lot of them lately.

Beautiful! I love it.

Favourites: #5, #6 and #7

Personally, I'd print #6. That one's perfect.

Maybe because I saw it first, 1 captivated me and as I looked on through the others I was reminded of a couple of interviews I was reading with Marilynne Robinson where she speaks so beautifully of the mystery of creation:

“So I have spent my life watching, not to see beyond the world, merely to see, great mystery, what is plainly before my eyes.” Marilynne Robinson, The Death of Adam

“There are a thousand thousand reasons to live this life, every one of them sufficient.” Marilynne Robinson, Gilead, pg 243

Wow! Absolutely beautiful . I think I like #2 and #4 the best. Actually, the second one makes me think of a disco, in the way that the sun makes patterns on the ground. I could just imagine the fairies in the forest having their own little rave

They're all good pics Virgil. It's more mist than fog though.

I like #2 and #3 for the very lovely crepuscular rays. Especially #3. The way the light changes from the sun glinting behind the tree to the thin bands of light is quite dramatic.

Absolutely fabulous Virgil... I love them all it is quite hard to chose just two. But here goes - 3 and 5. They have a sense of secrecy about them with the fog and rays of light.
