Post: The lake is really named Ghost Lake, it's famous for its mist and it's on Shades of Death Road. This was my attempt at pandering. Guess I'll stick to having fun and doing exactly what I like, no matter how Shades of Death my scores get.

Thank you two who commented.

p.s. it was the salmon mousse

Good fog capture. I think that if you would cut off the sky then the picture would be more mistified and better. The sky distracts.
Easy to test, just by scrolling down a bit.

I've always wanted to pay a visit to Shades of Death Road...very nice, eerie shot. You captured the fog extremely well, I love how it's kind kid trickling through that tree.

Have you been to any of the other creepy urban legend-spawning places in Jersey? I took a scouting trip down Indian Cabin over the summer and plan on making a return trip someday.

Great composition, but the postprocessing gives the tree a very artificial glow
