Lonely Outpost

Well, not really lonely but you can't see the other ones due to the trees and quite dense fog. The scene was pretty dark and sad so I decided to use sepia-like toning to enhance the mood.

With my hands freezing I wasn't able to set up a tripod to take this shot so I shot a single exposure hand-held using fast ISO and wide aperture. I also tested whether my camera and lenses are really water- and weatherproof as it was raining and later even snowing. All equipment passed the test. Fortunately for me :)
