When you mix two elements in nature you are bound to get an interesting photograph. Fog with early morning sunlight is always an interesting combination to work with. The moisture reflects and even redirects light, creating interesting lines and patterns. The long vertical lines in the image are caused by small shafts of light traveling through small holes in the forest canopy. The presence of the fog helps to show these individual light sources as they travel to the forest floor. These same light patterns are created at rock concerts by using man made fog and several different filtered lights.
