I decided to go for a short hike a few days ago at a nearby rookery, and it was quite foggy out. While walking down one of the paths I came across this wild scene of a small island on the lake which was totally engulfed in fog.

Great image. You should print it and frame it. It is outstanding.
What is the name of the Rookery?

The place is called Lake Renwick Rookery, located in Plainfield Illinois. Last year a pair of Bald Eagles set up a nest in the area as well and are periodically seen on one of the lakes there. This area used to be a large stone quarry and was taken over by the county forest preserve back in the 80's.

A good simplistic image. I really like the composition, minimal colors and reflection.
Great capture!

I like this serene image. Definitely a "wall-hanger", IMHO.
