chasing the focus

This is a photo-op I missed yesterday morning because I was in a hurry and didn’t stop to take the photo. Yeah, right. It woudn’t have made any difference, I was half an hour late already! Anyway, today afternoon I got another chance – but the light was far from what it was yesterday. Of course, it takes a lot to beat a good morning light and for this pic it came from a perfect direction yesterday: From behind the trees, through the fog. Today there really was no light at all and it came from another direction because it was late afternoon. However, I think the picture turned out pretty good anyway. Just that again I can’t make up my mind which version is better! The first one is more authentic (although pretty heavily post-processed) but there’s just something in the second one, too…
