It's a technique often used by photographers trying to imitate a foggy morning. All you need to is breathe a bit across the lens, and when the right amount of condensation has evaporated, click the shutter. The way I did it, I breathed from top down, so it evaporates in the opposite direction, leaving only the top third of the picture hazy.
There's a few other physical techniques, but they involve having to clean the camera off after you're done, which is not cool.
LOVE this photo. LOVE it. Especially since it was done simply by breathing on the lens. I am a simple woman and had not heard of such magical possibilities before today. Keep 'em coming!

woah, that's pretty cool.
How exactly did you do it?
just lighting? or when you say "physical ways" do you mean something entirely different?

Yeah, the vaseline on the lens trick doesn't work so well without a relatively-disposible filter to googe up.
Maybe this is why the pictures of my ex-girlfriends always appear like they were taken in an Irish bog. :)
Maybe... but it could also be that the pictures were actually taken in an Irish bog. You never know.
