What do I see in this image?
Standing over the shoulder of the photographer
I like to imagine myself standing right behind the photographer when this picture was taken. Was this person focusing on the lighting and adjusting with the settings on the camera or lost in the mesmerising textures of this vast and breathtaking canvas?
Was the sound of their breathing and heartbeat audible in the stillness of the morning? The crisp morning air felt on the skin of the face? Did the eyes trace out the line where the fog rose to meet the clouds with their gaze?
I think the beauty of this image lies in the way the warmth and glow of the sunlight is hidden behind the clouds with the slightest hint of the blue sky in the background. It is motion and stillness in harmony like the gentle green strokes against the sharp lines of the mountain, and the anticipation of the rays of light breaking through the dense morning haze.
