Fog on Mountains

It wasn’t much of a week for photography and I fear next week will be worse but I did get fascinated by the play of light and fog on the hills outside my window and ran outside with camera in hand for a few minutes.

Wood Duck

I have wanted to see and photograph these beautiful birds ever since I knew of their existence.
