Spring mists

Early morning starts have arrived and with it, beautiful atmospheric conditions.  March and April are great times to witness morning mist on the marshes, due to the cold layer of air lying low over the wet areas which have a greater temperature.  I find the optimum time for shooting is just as the sun begins to penetrate the mist producing a stunning orange colour to the landscape.  The image you see here has had minimal processing, the usual levels, curves and just +5 saturation.  Nature did the rest.
