The Gate in the Mist (B&W)

I was up early and noticed it was misty, but not so bad that a short drive would be dangerous. There was a copse in Lacock which I had long wanted to photograph when it was foggy. However, Lacock had been locked down because some big film or other was being made and Brad Pitt or somebody was having to be protected from his fans. The security guard, a man of few words and a threatening demeanour, took his duties most seriously and shouted loud enough to wake Brad, or whoever, in his caravan somewhere out of sight but probably within earshot of the loudmouth fellow. I found out by trial and error where his protection zone ended, and photographed a few things in the unprotected part.
He had probably been up all night and not seen a soul until I turned up. I must have made his day. He didn't make mine, but on the plus side, I did get this picture which I might otherwise have missed.
