Series 06 · Waiting for the fog
Misty Ridges
2021–2025 · 8 frames · Southwest mountains
The southwest mountains are always in fog. The few minutes on a ridge, in a gorge or at a pass while it clears are my most patient shooting yet.
Fog can’t be trusted. You think it’s going to clear and it thickens; you put the camera away and three minutes later it has pulled back behind the mountain.
These years I’ve learned one thing: when I arrive, I don’t shoot. I find a dry rock, sit down, and wait.
