Misty morning
Taken with a Nikon D50 and Nikon AF-S Zoom-Nikkor ED 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G DX (kit-lens)
Fog tends to fool even incident meters because there's so much reflectance from the damp air. Sometimes closing down a half stop from the incident meter reading gives pretty satisfactory results.
The key to avoiding fogged lenses is to make sure the camera is about the same temperature as the outside air. Taking a warm camera into a cold environment can cause fogging inside the lens, which is hard to deal with but less common than the other problem - taking a cold (e.g., air conditioned) camera into a warm, humid environment.
We have systematically tried to replace every natural aspect of society with inanimate artificial objects, telephone poles instead of trees, sewer systems instead of streams, cement instead of grasslands, killing animals when our stores and homes are full of food, this numbness to cruelty, this phobia of true life has made it necesary for doctors to cure the body, psychologists to cure the mind, but nothing will ever cure mind, body, and spirit... Nothing! Except for the healing embrace of NATURE.
