Morning valley fog over Charleston

HD VIDEO: Valley fog HD timelapse

Downtown was fogged in last night when I left the office, but my house up on the hill was in the clear. That meant a valley fog show was in the works, and a glance out my back windows at home confirmed it. Since I had already done a long nighttime shoot of the last valley fog event on October 26 (and since I was exhausted after having been at work for over 12 hours), I decided to forego another nighttime photo session and wake up for sunrise instead. These again were shot from the ridgetop in Spring Hill Cemetery behind my house.

Anyone living on the ridges above the fog line enjoyed the view.

The sun quickly burned away the fog, allowing the city to break through:
