Magical Mystery Mist Descends

Walking behind Alfond Sports Center on December 8, 2021, at 7:32 AM, the fog and mist were so thick, you could not see across Lake Virginia. Heading toward the Fox Lodge, I noticed that the fog was slightly less prominent near the gazebo with none near the edge of the lake where I was standing. The bright green grass and the evergreen tree juxtaposed the trees near the gazebo created a nothingness that gives the viewer the freedom and creativeness to imagine what might be in those spaces. The photo invokes serene feelings, while at the same time, a curiosity and uneasiness regarding the unknown. The fog in Orlando in December 2021 was a common happening but was only seen during the early hours of the day. I was fortunate to be able to capture a moment.
