Misty Expectations

When I take photographs on misty mornings I’m always full of expectation that something amazing will appear out of the murk. For me, this is the triumph of hope over experience as often the image I want to capture never materialises and only exists in my imagination. However, on this occasion I was not disappointed as the rising sun, diffused through water droplets, warmed the scene with beautiful orange light. A Red Deer Stag emerged from the mist bellowing his superiority over rival stags and hoping that hinds would be attracted by his calls.
