Wow, the first and last image are absolutely stunning!!
ReplyDeleteLove your photos as always :)Very moody and cool...in a good way!
ReplyDeleteHmmm, for some reason it didn't post my last comment (I am thinking user error)! Love the first and last images, especially the last (there's just something about the webs)... :)
ReplyDeleteHappy WW!
I'm very impressed that these are iphone photos! I really love your moody style too, it's lovely :)
ReplyDeleteStunning Alicia! I can't believe these were taken with an iPhone! Mad skills....
ReplyDeleteWhat gorgeous pictures! I love the black and white!
ReplyDeleteI think that the sights that you have captured in these images are truly remarkable. Much like music to ones ears, the sights that you capture have so much character and mood they unreal. They also give an insight to your thoughts at the moment that photo becomes captured. Absolutely amazing and if there was a definition of a true work of art, these photos would be at the top. Wonderful work Alicia
ReplyDeleteLove these they are awesome!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Saun!
ReplyDeleteWow! Thanks so much Kurtis! I'm very flattered by your sweet words and so glad you appreciate my work. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Amanda! I'm very drawn to black and white these days...
ReplyDeleteHa! Thanks so much! I often marvel at what I can produce with my phone. Loving all the new photo editing apps! ;)
ReplyDeleteYep, iPhone 5. It's kinda amazing. I LOVE it in case you couldn't tell. ;)
ReplyDeleteSorry David. These commenting systems often have minds of their own. ;) Thanks for your thoughtful comment. Always appreciate your visits!
ReplyDeleteThanks Lish! Appreciate it!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos, and I love the Christmas card templates!
ReplyDeleteI hope your eyes are back to normal - no, even better! :) Beautiful pictures, and thanks for the freebie!
ReplyDeleteOh yah! I hope you get to use them! If not, just tuck them away. I'm sure they'll come in handy one of these days! ;)
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately I received some frustrating news at the doctor yesterday... I'm a slow healer. Sigh. So, I've been told it's probably going to take a minimum of 8 weeks. I've got some dollar store specs to help magnify the blurry mess until the seam heals, but lots of headaches. I'm doing what I can and I'll be sure to let ya know when I'm seeing perfect. ;)
ReplyDeleteOh gosh, these are gorgeous! And I love your processing! I rarely see fog around here...maybe I need to get up earlier ;)
ReplyDeleteThank you for the beautiful templates! Love them!!
So gorgeous! I thought they were taken with your DSLR that iphone 5 camera must be awesome. Hope you are doing well my friend.
ReplyDeleteI really love that spider web picture- so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOh that first shot is stunning. Thanks so much for the fun cards.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots! They're somewhat haunting but beautiful!
ReplyDeleteGreat description, Trisha! Thanks so much for stopping by!
DeleteYeah, not much of a morning person myself but the fog's been sticking around longer lately. (I did get up at 7 on Saturday for these though... ) Glad you like the templates. You'll have to let me know if you use them!
ReplyDeleteI am in love with the 5, but I jumped from the 3GS. Ha! Doing better every day, just not at the speed I'd like. Thanks for your kind words!
ReplyDeleteThanks Tara! One of my favs too. ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks Mary! And you're so welcome!
ReplyDeleteGreat description, Trisha! Thanks so much for stopping by! Appreciate your comment!

Breathtaking photos!!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful images!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots. Here in OK it would be a really cold fog, so I get chilled just looking at your shots.
ReplyDeleteThe best of photography! i love it!
ReplyDeleteRebecca
Gorgeous shots! Fog always makes everything mysteriously beautiful, doesn't it? :)
ReplyDeleteOnce-In-A-Lifetime Date 12/12/12 makes Mike & Merri’s Birthday Extra Special
Well, I can't remember exactly but I think it was a high of 70 the day I snapped these. ;) SC has a pretty mild winter so it's much more pleasant to get out and snap pics!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Marty!
ReplyDeleteThanks Charlotte. Appreciate the visit!
ReplyDeleteUgh Sarah? lol. I'm amazed by the quality of my iPhone!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Kristi! That means so much to me coming from you!
ReplyDeleteYes, Jessica! The detail, the beauty... spiders are artists! And it's definitely a miracle!
ReplyDeleteThanks Emilee! Appreciate it.
ReplyDeleteoh my gosh! gorgeous eerie pics!!!
ReplyDeleteThese are SO beautiful!!! You did such an amazing job. I could look at these for days.
ReplyDeleteAww, thanks so much Faith! That means a lot to me! I wasn't sure how they would be received. My son thinks they're depressing, but I think fog is so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! Great description. :)
ReplyDeleteIt really does, Stacy! It's definitely one of my favorite subjects!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Rebecca! Appreciate your kind words.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous photos! Love the calm darkness of the winter. I'm in North Carolina, so it was cool to see that you are so close!

Beautiful!! This is a lot like what Maine looked like this morning, except we had frost on the trees along with the mist :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Alicia and I love your vintage card design!!
ReplyDeleteThat first image is simply breathtaking Alicia! Wonderful images all of them. Thank you for hosting the hop! Sending warm wishes your way.
ReplyDeleteThese are amazing. Love the black and white. Makes the fog really pop.
ReplyDeleteOh how lovely! I can almost feel that moist air, especially in that one of you looking out. I don't know why that one- but I can really FEEL what it was like there. AMAZING!
ReplyDeleteI particularly love the spider web! I am always fascinated by webs, but they are so hard to capture with a camera!
ReplyDeleteOoh. I'm sure that was breathtaking. Hope you got out to capture it! ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Kristy! The photo shoot of my sweet nieces and nephews was the inspiration for the cards.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I am a lover of both fog and b&w so it seemed only logical to combine them. ;)
ReplyDeleteProbably my limp hair, lol. It was like 100% humidity and it just pulled the curls right out. Moist is an accurate observation, ha!
ReplyDeleteThey really are, but it never makes me want to stop trying. ;)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful foggy images. They work well in black and white.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by for our WW, too :)
One thing I miss about living in the desert is fog. It is a very rare occurrence here. I always loved walking around on a foggy morning.
ReplyDeleteTaking pictures in the fog is one of my favorite things to do. I adore your images. Especially your selfies. Mine never look that artistic.
ReplyDeleteYour photos are so gorgeous! I'm getting my first iPhone this week (it's a used iPhone 4, though), so I hope to learn how to take decent photos with it. Happy WW!
ReplyDeleteWhat talent! The spider web made me shiver.
ReplyDeletelove that first one... that is a framer
ReplyDeleteWow. Amazing shots as always. I can't say I have experienced any serene fogs like that on my end of SC. I love your macro shot of the spider web especially!
ReplyDeleteAwesome shots as always! Thanks for hosting.
ReplyDeleteFabulous photos. Love the spider webs!!
ReplyDeleteWe lived in South Carolina when I was younger. No, there is no snow, but I do agree, it is still pretty all the same! I do miss it there!
ReplyDeleteI love the shadow on the lake from the trees! As always fabulous work here.
ReplyDeleteLovely
ReplyDeleteThe first photo is gorgeous!! And your holiday cards are pretty cool too :))
ReplyDeletefantastic holiday cards..timely
