"Sunrise Mountain", New Jersey. It obviously didn't rise that morning.The Photo-Gods blessed me with a wonderful layer of fog instead.

Wonderful photograph Gary.

gary this is a truly spooky photo. the dense fog, the twisted and writhing trees... good eye sir

Del Gap in the fog, what do you think?

Yeah, that's nice. I like the rocks in there too.

Just when I thought all hope was lost for the critique forum, you posted something worthy of a photographer. Nice shot but i'm not such a big fan of that rock...i'd have liked to have seen more of those cool lookin' trees. I checked out your portfolio...you've got some excellent stuff there! *Have a look people!*

Great shut, great performance.

nice work gary i really enjoyed looking at these. keep up the good work.

Sort of reminds me of Coffin Rock in the Blair Witch Project.

I like the effect of the trees receding down a sort of corridor. But the rock in the foreground, especially that vertical-ish one in the immediate foreground toward the center, is holding me back from the scene. It's frankly in the way. Looks like maybe moving three feet forward and up a little would have fixed it. Nice place to play with a wide angle lens, too.

Hate to be a kill-joy, but there is nothing about this image that i like. Fog shots are very nice under certain conditions, but this one is flat and the subject matter is ugly.

hate to be another kiljoy, but i think the photograph is too muddied. there's not much pleasing about it except the composition. the colors are plainly okay. nevertheless, i do think the picture would benefit from more light. but that's just my 2c.

I love a good monochramatic color picture! ;)

If everyone all liked the same thing, the world would be boring.... I happen to like the picture. Great job.

What a great shot. Who says New Jersey isn't beautiful. Is that in the Orange Mountains?
