Even on days when I did not venture out for photography, my wife and I often drove through scenic Brown County State Park on our way to or from some other destination.
Occasionally, we might stop at
an overlook and sometimes I took time to get a photo.

This is a continuation of a foggy morning shoot in Brown County State Park near Nashville, Indiana.
There were occasional breezes through the trees and I did not try to adjust my shutter speed to freeze the wind induced motion, so some of the images may show that motion, such as that in the image above.

I initially photographed along a roadway through Brown County State Park on a foggy morning, then took a long hike through the forest.  Photos in this post and  a number in the previous post (part 22) were taken along that forest hiking trail.
The fog was getting thinner now and it became more difficult to capture the fog in my images. Â I elected to stop photographing as it was getting late in the morning and I was getting hungry for breakfast and caffeine. Â I’m sure the hiking trail was not of great length, but it seemed like it took me a considerable time to get back to a a roadway. Â Then I had to hike a considerable distance along a roadway to return to my vehicle.
Until next time,

Another early morning photo shoot in Brown County State Park, Indiana. Â I got lucky this morning. Â It was a moderately foggy morning with heavy fog in some areas. Â Foggy mornings here are not unusual and I had hoped to get at least one foggy morning.
The last two images here are essentially the same composition, but the last one obviously has a foggier look. Â That is due to shooting it farther away from the tree line and having more fog between the camera and the trees.
One has to be careful when shooting in the fog and when editing the foggy images. Â It is not always easy to get the exposure right and editing can take out the effect of the fog, if over done. Â I can’t claim to be an expert at either of these skills, but fog surely can add magic to some scenes.

Early morning photos in Brown County State Park, continued.
Remains of trees laying where they fell in the forest among the trees that are still standing and maybe ones that took the place of their fallen comrades.
There is probably a story behind the distortion in that bent tree trunk. Â Maybe a life’s event deformed it, in the same way that life’s choices, obstacles or stresses might change a person’s life path.
This concludes this mornings shoot.
Until next time,

I went into Brown County State Park again early on the morning of October 28, 2023, first stopping at Ogle Lake. Â It was a bland sky morning, heavily overcast and no sunrise sky color. Â I made the image above, which is similar to ones made a couple of days earlier, except for the sky, Â then the blandness of the sky prompted me to leave the lake and wander through the park looking for better fall images.
Do you think I got enough leaf strewn roadway as leading lines in these images?

This is a continuation of my fall photography along Tower Ridge Road in Charles C. Deam Wilderness, Indiana, October 2023.
This wraps up the highlights of my photography along Tower Ridge Road in the Charles C. Deam Wilderness of Indiana.
Until next time,
