Afternoon Fog

Folks from Saint John, New Brunswick will laugh at this but I have to say I miss fog.  I left that foggy city thirty-some years ago to escape fog and would not want to live in it's grip again but when it does arrive here, as it occasionally does, I lap it up.

There is rarely fog on An Island Walk but we enjoy taking pictures of it so much...

I would feel the same way, Mary. I think it's somewhere in our genes! Scenes like this are very soulful to me.
Mary MacADNski: I was surprised that I would ever want to see fog again.
I love this mystic view... peaceful and quiet
Mary MacADNski: It was sunny as could be except there was still fog. Very odd but pretty.

Isn't it interesting Mary - it's part of where you come from
Mary MacADNski: I would never in a million years thought I'd enjoy seeing fog.
Beautiful,Peaceful and Quiet, and the subject of another Horror story?
Mary MacADNski: Check out that fin in the water. It could be another horror story.
It gives great atmosphere to the shot Mary..Very nice.
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Ron. It was a nice change.

Good photo Mary I am wondering what that fin shape thing is in the water?
Mary MacADNski: Gosh! I am wondering too. I am assuming it is a bird flying by but it also does look like a fin. I just had a look at my files and it is in every shot I took at that spot. It might be a piece of wood? It is a real mystery you have brought up.
I like this.
Nice image of the fog coming in.
Mary MacADNski: I enjoyed the day so much.
Wonderful capture Mary. I love the atmosphere!
Mary MacADNski: This is all in our memories at some point - a universal sight.
Lovely atmosphere Mary, it does make a good image smile
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Linda. i find it amazing that it excited me after detesting it so much years ago.
Very nice atmosphere Mary, the sea is a lovely colour.
Mary MacADNski: It is deep blue because the sun behind me out and the skies are blue.
terrific atmosphere!!
Mary MacADNski: It was sunny behind me believe it or not.
It makes views magical doesn't it - I remember looking at a scene like this on the Maine coast years ago - and it is still fresh in my mind.
Mary MacADNski: The coast of Maine gets fog similar to that in Saint John. It is from the cold Bay of Fundy. Wonderful for a short time but not to live in year after year. You start to get moldy. LOL
This is mist...mist is good...fog is 'orrible
Mary MacADNski: Tell me about it. It was foggy though in the morning. It is all but mist at this time around 3:30 - 4 o'clock.

I can see why you like it. Mystery of mist and such a beautiful shot. Where I live we have maybe 3 foggy days in a year and the mystery feeling is with me when it happens.
Mary MacADNski: That is about the same as here and I never see it last all day like this. it was great with the sun behind you and the fog hugging the coast.
full of sweetness and melancholy
Mary MacADNski: Thank you so much, claudio.

Like a gal wearing only a flimsy cloth...one cannot stop the mind from imagining what details might be revealed if the cloth fell away...
Mary MacADNski: I can give you a hint - more black spruce trees.
