This immediately grabbed my attention from the thumbnail. Beautiful image, João. It conveys a setting I’d like to personally witness. I’d call this a fine art image, ready to hang on the wall.

João, this is lovely. I like the warm colors in the fog and the trees and how they contrast with the cool blue sky. I also think that your offset both the trees and the rising fog well. The subtle streaks along angled along the lower parts are a great addition to the foreground.

This is such a lovely image. I really like the diagonal bars of light on the water. I think they’re catching the rising mist. My reaction are fond memories of witnessing such scenes in person.
