Forest walk

high shutter speed to get the silhouette effect, hence why the subject and environment is mostly black, narrow aperture to get all the environment in focus:

I believe the photographer took the meter reading on the sign so as to have a good range of grays while having the silhouette of the man and the foggy effect of the light. If the reading had been taken on the man he would have appeared lighter and with more detail and the rest of the image would have become more blown out around him.
