  1. Very atmospheric misty photographs – especially the horse and rider which feels rather eerie in the way they are appearing from nowhere…

Whether you have comments on the photos, some knowledge or a personal story on this area you’d like to share, or you’ve spotted a typo or error, I’d love to hear your thoughts.
