Oh, let’s hear it for patchy fog—especially combined with Old Glory and a quintessential front porch. Lovely photograph. So glad you go out after dark.
Thanks Linda. It was hard to resist though a lot colder and more uncomfortable than I expected. Years ago, I did a whole series of night photographs in urban residential and light industry neighborhoods. I liked the way extraneous details disappeared into the blackness leaving only critical elements visible. This year, I discovered a similar thing sometimes happens with extreme overexposures in daylight — unwanted details becoming completely washed out. Much more difficult to achieve good results however.
These are eerie and beautiful at the same time. And that looks suspiciously like my car in shot 1!

A great set, very poignant, without being syrupy, of course.
