"Hidden Wonder"

There are times in life when we loose our way, or we simply can’t see our way. To look beyond our disappointments and look for opportunities instead, takes both an awareness and intent. That said, this is what led to this photo. On this day, life didn’t go as planned so I pulled up my big girl pants and made the most of it by setting off on a photo shoot. As I was taking photos in an apple orchard I noticed clouds clinging to the sides of the mountain and saw it as an opportunity to get some shots in the fog. So off I went in search of a road that would lead me into the forest. Fortunately, I happened upon a very wet and slimy gravel road (my poor Jeep, lol!) and after climbing for quite some time I felt incredibly rewarded when I came across a patch of birch trees (I was elated!). I LOVE the fog in this photo because it sets a mood. I also love how the highlights leads you into, through and out of the photo yet you try to look deeper into forest; hence the name of this photo, “Hidden Wonder”.
