I dig the photo, I'd frame the photo. Its gorgeous and serene but if even I notice a vignette then I think the vignette is way too strong

Thanks for the feedback. I could agree the vignette "may" be to strong.
I could see getting rid of it on the "right" side of photo. But I like the going to black on the "left" have a good day .

Very nice. We had the same sort of fog here the other day, and I tried to grab some photos, but sadly, I didn't have any scenery like this around. I agree about the vignette, btw.

As far as composition goes, I'd love to have seen just a little more layering. This is a good shot, but you've really just got two depths in the photo -- the distant trees and the foggy background (maybe another hill back there). I've seen some really "wow" fog photos in settings like this that include several layers from front to back -- think foreground tree, then the next hill over, and the next hill, etc.

Nice capture of the trees and the mist. I agree with DLambert about the layering. Almost all of the visual interest is in the lower half of your shot, so I would consider cropping some off the top.

One vote against the vignette. I've yet to see one used on a landscape shot where I think it helped.
