I mentioned in my previous post how after photographing the Morris festivities, I cycled to the park for a cup of tea and a read in beautiful soft, soft, light.
Well this is what it looked like.
I always like to look at people lost in the fog, and trying to imagine that their world is indeed a perpetual gloom of mizzle rather than the relatively clear conditions that they, like I, would be having. Folk were playing football, someone was flying a quadro-copter and children played on the climbing frame, all of them in blurred silhouette, detail washed away by the cloud.
Dogs frolicked as an old man walked by with a stick, like Japanese shadow puppets. Other people walked into the distance and were swallowed up into the gloom as they crossed a sort of climatological event horizon.
It was eerie, and beautiful.

I love images taken in misty or foggy conditions.
ReplyDeleteEverything looks so mysterious.
I remember years ago walking in a wooded area with my dogs in fog.
Two woodpigeons flew from the trees and frightened the life out of me.
I never walked in woods in the fog again :)
You have some lovely images, fog looks wonderful when the sun is trying to shine through it....

The fog has been replaced by rain now, so I am travelling around with my yellow kag atrocity, looking like a ghost with neon jaundice
ReplyDeleteMisty and mysterious. Really like that first sun shot. Rain here too Si, unfortunately. Looks to have set in for the week now.
ReplyDeleteHopefully I can find rainless windows to do my marathon training in!
ReplyDeleteYou captured the Sun well. There were Sunspots on the left hand side on Sunday. I guess the misty conditions masked them for you,
ReplyDeleteMy hopeless inability to focus as well, I dare say!
