While working on a large water project, I found myself at Homestead Creek early in the morning. To my delight, morning fog was in the area but it was also cloudy, so no sunshine. Finding this location along a dirt road, I put on a very wide angle lens to shoot. The creek was right below me and the fog was further back, so the wider the better. I cropped most of the boring white sky out and took an overall light reading. This photo ended up being the lead photo of a five day water special put out by the Rocky Mountain News.
