As things begin to cool down, we should expect some misty mornings to arrive soon. When they do, be sure to grab a picture and send them in!

What makes a good shot?

Hold your phone horizontally to capture in widescreen, keep steady when capturing the view, make sure your image is in focus, try to avoid harsh light or too little light.
