February Fog

This is a new edit of a picture previously posted here. I've cropped out some of the foreground to accentuate the young cyclist taking a short cut across the park, and getting a bit bogged down for his pains. The mist was doing a good job of shrouding the trees but I've made it even denser by, inter alia, making the photograph more grainy. That also emphasises the presence of the cyclist a bit more. I must prefer it to the original edit, because I am posting it afresh. Editing is a whole sub-genre of photography, I find, and it has taken on more prominence for me since Covid changed my habits so profoundly.
I notice that the focal length of the lens gave a full-frame equivalent field of view of 60mm; and cropping it a bit more simply serves to confirm my preference for shooting moderate telephoto.
