A month ago I posted a color photograph at sunset of the view from Pam and Peter’s balcony in Foresthill. After weeks of gloomy fog and overcast in the valley, it was so nice to be, if ever so briefly, “above the fog” as the people living above about 1500 feet are always happy to remind us flat landers (Lincoln has an elevation of about 150 feet). It’s been exactly a month and the foggy gloom in the valley now alternates with soggy skies and dense overcast. That evening in December, I took a few black and white shots as the fog drifted into the valley and defined the crevices beneath us creating an atmospheric depth that was pretty amazing.
