Cowles Mountain During Early Morning Fog

This morning around 8 A.M., I went for a hike up a foggy Cowles (pronounced locally as "coals") Mountain. I thought that I would get a clear picture at the top, but I decided not to wait for the fog to burn off.

The sun is just beginning to pierce through the fog as I blog at noon time.

I tried snapping some shots of spider webs with dew drops. It's quite tricky getting the webs in focus. I came across a dragonfly covered in dew in the chaparral. I couldn't tell if it was still alive.

I'll provide a clear view from the top someday. Until then, here are a few sample pictures (click the image below and activate the slide show):
