Magic in the night
July 31, 2012
Driving home in the middle of the night I passed the valley around the village Assedrup between Odder and Århus.
It was past midnight – but I had to stop and try capturing this magic scene. Even I did not bring my tripod
So I used my car as tripod!
Not many of the photos were useable.
This was the best
(Click the photo and have the best view!)
I wish you a magic summer

Just lovely Truels. Love the mist.
It was pure magic to stand ther taking LOTS of photos in the quiet night.
Truels, the scene is absolutely beautiful. It still look so bright out, we wouldn’t be able to see anything here after 22:00.
Around midsummer the night here is very light and short! But no night-sunshine as longer up north in Norway…..
Wow, amazing. Can’t believe that’s after midnight though, it’s dark here at about 10 now, and getting earlier and earlier
Here it’s already getting much darker again in the night too……………
That’s beautiful. I can imagine a story being woven around that landscape and mist.
Oh yes, it really turns one’s senses and imagination……………………..
Same to you!

Thanks, Dina. I’ll keep in touch
The fog/mist is beautiful!
Pretty cool, too, to still be so light out at midnight. We just came back from northern Michigan, where it didn’t get dark until after 10 pm.
These summer nights are amazing, eh?!
Beautiful image, Truels, I’m so glad you stopped to capture the moment.
I enjoyed every second!
I’m so glad you stopped to take this amazing shot…..the low mist and moonlit hills is magical.
Magical, that’s the right word here
That sure is a beautiful scene, and perfectly captured too..
Oh thank you so much!!
Seeing those lights through that dense fog…. surely you have given me a but of magic tonight… Many thanks.
I am so glad that my photo has given you a little magic!

Hello Otto! I have still a very busy time – so sorry I haven’t given you a reply before now
I admire you and your photography – and am inspired by following your work!
So therefore I am honored by your nomination of me with this “Inspiring Blog Award”.
I think you fully deserve to be sprinkled with a lot of awards!
I must admit that other bloggers have previously nominated me with an award, that I did not get followed up on ….. But in this case, I hope later in August to follow up on your nomination of me. Thank you for your thoughts on my blog!
Truels, this is a beautiful and atmospheric photograph. Who needs a tripod???
I sometimes need mine – often when I did not bring it
I’m glad you also like the photo. I think it’s one of my best photos……..
Dette var STORT! Slike bilder er noe av det fineste jeg vet
Magien i denne nat var stor – en af disse lyse og milde sommernætter, hvor det ikke bliver mørkt.
Og så denne tåge! Den lå bare SÅ fint ned i dalen.
Ja, når der er magi i natten – så kommer der også magi i billederne af denne
Tak for dine fine ord – når de kommer fra dig – sætter jeg ekstra pris på dem!
Herlig å se! Som RuneE liker også jeg tåke som ligger lavt over terrenget!
Ha en sommerlig kveld!
Tak for din dejlige kommentar, Hans. Ønsker dig nogle gode og magiske nætter også!
That’s awesome photo. In this case my words are not enough, but believe me what I did say.
I believe you. And thanks for your words.
I love this photo myself and think it is one of my best
Et virkelig stemningsfullt bilde. Tåken er selvsagt et viktig element i bildet, men jeg liker også den dyp blå fargen som ligger over landskapet i kontrast til den neste utbrente, gylne himmelen. Treet som stikker opp av tåken gir øyet et sted å hvile og vende tilbake til. Nydelig!
Tak for din fine kommentar, Otto!
Den sætter jeg særlig pris på, når det er dig, der skriver – og når du beærer mig med en blog-inspirations-pris. Jeg synes dit foto-arbejde er super flot og særdeles inspirerende for mig – og rigtig mange andre.
Noget jeg også sætter pris på ved dette foto er lysene i et par af husene, de giver yderligere stemning til billedet.
Og ja, jeg var heldig med det træ, det giver en fin dybde i fotoet….
Amazing and fabulous picture ! Strange to see the fog bank in such a clear night. I love the skyline of trees in the background. Thanks for stopping and sharing your magical night with us.
It was a GREAT pleasure to stop and enjoy an hour in the middle of this night.
And to discover, that a few of the many photos I captured were sharp – and showed some of the magic I experienced there.
Thank you for your kind words!
It’s magical because it so successfully sparks the imagination and opens our minds to the natural wonder of such a landscape. There are so many facets to the natural landscapes around us. You’ve captured a remarkable one with your photograph.
Thank you so much for your nice comments
