These gayfeather plants--a special autumn delight around here--were practically luminous in the diffused light of an especially foggy morning before work one day. I drove around some of the pastures in the county hoping to find a scene like this for this challenge. Decided to let the fog do the heavy lifting in the processing, though I did apply a little subtle motion blur and glamour glow to enhance the separation between foreground and background a bit.
