Greek Temple in Fog, a photo from Ohio, Midwest

Photographer's Note

4:30 AM, can't sleep. Go out to take pictures at night, without a flash, in the fog. I have found that this is a great way to meet policemen.
Color converted to B&W, cropped, removed flagpole.

Superbly composed night shot. The grain in the picture adds to the mysterious mood. Very, very well done.

Oh, this is lovely, what a good shot for black and white, that tree in the foreground gives it such an impact, and what an eery mood the whole image conveys.

The building at right enveloped in the fog makes this even more intriguing to me and the bare tree at left adds another eerie element to this engaging shot. There is a white dot lower center I would spot out.

great! I agree with Adam about the dot.

At first I did not like the tree, and I tried to focus on the temple and mist.

I realize however that your presentation as it stands should be looked at as a whole. The tree adds to the overall feel that would otherwise be just an architectural photograph.

Quelle photo, très bien réussie. Bonne idée en noir et blanc. L'insomnie peut mener à de bien belles choses si j'en juge cette photo. Bravo
Which photo, very well made a success. Good idea in black and white. The sleeplessness can lead to very beautiful things if I judge this photo it. Bravo

Your title almost fooled me I really thought that this picture had been taken in Greece. Discovering that it was shot in Ohio, it makes it even greater. Love it.

Agree with the others about the white spot, a light maybe. I would also clone the kind of flower shaped stickers I believe just below "the temple", it's too modern for that kind of picture.
