Sunrise pond steaming

[Peeb]

I was driving by this pond early yesterday and it was steaming a bit in the early morning chill.

Unfortunately, the sun had already risen too much, which overwhelmed the scene (and the steam was burning off), and all I had was an iPhone. I'll try again with my good camera, and earlier in the AM.

Early morning ponds can make really awesome subjects when they steam. Unfortunately, the wind always seems to blow in Oklahoma, so finding a morning when the waters are still enough to steam is often tricky.

Anybody got some (hopefully better) captures of pond steam?

Here's one I've posted previously. It was interesting because the "fog/steam" was concentrated in a strip, I guess due to the water temperature.
