Wife Barb and son Stephen
on a misty Maine morning

I woke up to find this scene
and fell over myself to grab my camera

I shot as fast as I could
exposing up and down by four stops
hoping to get something before the fog lifted

when it did I found that the camera meter
was set for the wrong film and all of the shots were thin
Only +4 could be saved... leading to the glow about them
that a proper exposure might never have given me

This is a scan of the only print I have
the negative... is safe... somewhere

If I find it I will scan it to 16 bits
and pull out what more I can

but I have come to love that halo of light
