Misty Town Bridge, Boston

I gave a talk about photography in our village recently and in it I emphasised how much I like the weather that many shun for the qualities that it brings to photographic images. There's nothing to beat snow, frost, showers, mist and fog (I exclude constant rain) for interesting photography. During January we've had quite a bit of fog and mist and this photograph of people crossing the Town Bridge in Boston, Lincolnshire exemplifies what I mean. The shot is made by the silhouettes, tones, different qualities of light, shadows, all of which was suffused in a soft mist that was lifting even as I raised my camera to my eye.
