[QUOTE="BeegRhob, post: 754283, member: 48712"] First and foremost, I don't know! I am following this to learn, for my future reference. Every time I come back, I keep thinking it has to do with the exposure, the original detail in the photo. If I have blown highlights, I can only do so much with the detail that is there in the edit, and same for dark shadows. 1/1000 is plenty fast to freeze any motion of the fog at that distance, unless possibly it was real windy, but it shouldn't matter I think with the 35mm lens. I can't tell where it is focused, my eyes are crappy, it looks like on the bridge, more than the trees in the foreground. I am not sure how the depth of field (DOF) would pan out with f7.1, but the bridge focus DOF should be better in the background where the fog appears to start at the bridge going further back. My thought is to close the aperture way down and bump up the ISO to experiment with it and go in the opposite direction and compare the details with different exposures. I also wonder about white balance, how could that affect something so fine as fog? Also, when we are inside in incandescent light, we see the color "right", but the camera sensor doesn't see it like we do, so we use white balance to correct it, in camera and/or when we edit. I am kinda writing "out loud" to gather my thoughts, which I know what I mean but it may not come out that way. Rob [/QUOTE]
