Verynice capture of misty environment... I bet Location Managers for movie sets would be interested in this spot.

Thank you! It is one of my favorite spots - right in the city just a few minutes from my home. There's actually a nasty power plant to the right of the frame ????

This photo tells a story to me, and you've captured vivid color while showing a monochrome mist. Impressed

If this had not been a photograph for myself to see from you as an artist and photographer, I would've thought it were a realist painting

This is a spectacular image. The misty haze and colors coupled with the bridge leading to the unknown makes it very mysterious...Well done!

Amazing capture. Looks eerie like it belongs in a horror film. It caught my eye and stopped me scrolling. Love it!

Location
I took this photo at my favorite lake just a few miles from my neighborhood in Zagreb, Croatia. This gem is actually an ornithological reserve located right in the city. It consists of no less than 12 lakes and is pretty unknown even to city residents, with exception of the few local fisherman.Time
The photo was taken at late afternoon with huge amounts of fog rising due to the waters of the lake and proximity of the Sava river.Lighting
The light was all natural as it is on most of my photos.Equipment
I used my Canon 600d and the awesome Canon efs 10-18. I mounted the camera on a tripod because I wanted to take a series of different longer exposures since I wanted to keep the ISO number low at 100. No other equipment was used.Inspiration
The beauty of nature is always an inspiration for me and I love taking photos and spending time in nature especially by the water. When I don't have the time to go somewhere out of the city, these lakes are my first choice. You may find it hard to believe but there is actually a huge powerplant just to the right of the frame which one has to pass by on the way to the lakes.Editing
I did my usual post-processing routine which consists of minor tweaks in Lightroom such as sharpening and color correction. I also often combine different exposures and this photo is no exception - I think that this one consists of three different exposures.In my camera bag
When I go out to shoot landscapes I usually have both my Canon 5d-mii and my Canon 600d. I have two EF lenses (50 f1.8 and EF 35-105) and several efs lenses covering everything from 10 to 250.Feedback
My main advice for others trying to capture something similar is to go out as much as possible and just spend time studying your subject, making notice of light at different times of day and searching for that perfect frame.
