ENTRY DESCRIPTION
This photo was taken on a rare early morning when a blanket of low-lying mist covered the area between my location and the skyline of New York City. It was the first and only time I have ever witnessed such a scene where levels of mist straddled the landscape on the New Jersey side of the Hudson River. I captured it from the first mountains in New Jersey, about thirty-five miles west of New York City, in a town called Verona. I had to set up and take the photo quickly, knowing that the mist would dissipate as the sun grew stronger.

AUTHOR
A lifelong admirer of the visual world, I discovered my love for photography at age six when I held my first camera and started seeing stories through a lens. During my professional career in business, time for photography remained scarce. Since retiring two years ago, I’ve embraced this long-held passion with renewed dedication, focusing on the art of black and white photography. This chapter is my creative renaissance, and I am committed to pushing the boundaries of excellence one frame at a time.
