TITLE: Into the Mystic
During winters, the coastal southeastern portion of the United States can often experience heavy fog in the mornings. Not far from my house is an area appropriately named Isle of Hope. Isle of Hope is a barrier island just south of Savannah, Georgia on the Atlantic intracoastal waterway that runs from Massachusetts, around the southern tip of Florida and into the Gulf of Mexico. It is also an area filled with coastal marshes, brackish inland waterways and huge live oak trees rich with Spanish moss. The combination often provides stunning scenery. I captured this image early on a foggy February morning along the intercoastal waterway. The dock belongs to one of the many old plantation houses that line the waterfront and I loved how the ramp simply disappears into the fog at the end.
