The story behind this image

Rhuallt hill stands like a bastion surrounded by the sea of mist that's rolled in from the North Wales coast, and I'm halfway up it in that zone where the mist is thin enough to glow from the diffuse sunlight trying to burn it off.

This light's amazing, it almost seems alive as features in the landscape flow in and out of vision.

I'm parked up by a farm gate busy contemplating the scene in front of me. Should I bother with the camera or not?

Silly question really.
