Being a mist-fanatic myself this picture immediately caught my eye. It portrays a very nicely calm and serene atmosphere both because of the desaturated colour palette and the balanced composition. What might have improved this even more would have been to get the path a little more centered on the photo. Yet still, even like this, the path leading away from the viewer guides the beholder's glance easily to the background where the veil of mist and the trees let you wonder what they might hide. The soft light coming from above adds a nice touch to the picture, making the mist seem a little less oppressive and more dreamy. It grants the photo a magical feel. The motif itself however lacks a little bit of originality but the execution is good enough not to let this be too much of a bother. I will also subtract half a star on technique for a slight blurriness that doesn't seem to result through the mist. All in all this is a very well done piece of art though that invites you to linger and dream for a little while.
