February Fog

Well, actually, it was January fog.  Remember in the middle of that month several days with heavy fog in the morning?

Island in the Mist

Those conditions are a photographer's delight, at least they are for me.  So I set off early in the morning to explore some of the local roads around the Cross River Reservoir.
 
A few facts: this reservoir is one of NYC's water supplies, runs about 3 miles long on the south side of Rt 35, has been in operation for over 100 years and holds some 10 billion gallons when full, according to wikipedia.  I wonder who figures things out like this? And HOW?
 
Anyway, from previous ramblings I know there is a small island on the South side of the reservoir.  With the mist removing distracting details, the resulting image strikes me as kind of mysterious, isolating, may be even foreboding?  Or just an interesting abstract shape floating in space. A Rorschach?  Let me know what you think below.
