I know there are photographers who choose to photograph in the right light and weather conditions. Me? I take what I can get. Here in sunny Northers California, we’ve been dealing with rain, fog and cold temperatures. I needed to get out with my camera and Richard was willing to drive me. I think he needed to get away too. So off we went to Rush Ranch in Suisun City located near Fairfield.

During the little more than 1 hour ride, he kept questioning me about photographing in the fog which didn’t get better as we headed west. I love fog, and, of course, clouds also add to our pictures. He’s an astronomer and fog and clouds are his enemy.

When we got to Rush Ranch, part of the Solano County Land Trust, the fog had not dissipated. I didn’t care. I had been here before, but this time they had horses, wet grass and mud. What more could you want!

Here are some of the images I took during our short visit.

I’m planning to go back with my photo buddies when the sun is out. I’m sure the ranch will have a different look and feel.

  1. Living in the UK I too have to take what I can get when it comes to weather, but in this case I think the soft light of the cloudy day really suits these images. And that close-up of the horse’s eye is fantastic, I love the tight crop!

  2. What an absolutely wonderful outing. Fog, mood, horses and mud. Fun! The eye and eyelashes are a great capture. And I love the teal green car. A day well spent, Anne. You must have felt wonderful to get home with some new photos.
