EVENING FOG

I love a good foggy morning or night. One night not long ago, I got the capture after dinning on Front Street in Wormleysburg, looking toward downtown Harrisburg. Even if you know an area, a fog sure does give it an air of mystery and calm. And with as warm and mild as we've been of late, there have been many foggy mornings and evenings. The bridge reminds me of the walk bridge in New Hope to Lambertville also.

  4. I love a good foggy evening, or even day. I love watching fog slither through the trees in our yard.

    1. I'll never forget the first time I saw the fog roll into San Franisco, engulfing all the buildings as it approached the hotel I was in.

    2. I have several old photos I took from just north of Bodega Bay and when you lay them out they show the fog coming up and over the hills and down into the coastal valleys.

    3. It's cool right? Like a fog monster eating up everything in its path.

  5. That is a lovely photo Mistress!!!! And it does remind me of the walk bridge in New Hope, just longer. We here have had foggy mornings of late, the first in a long time.

  9. A stunning shot. I love a heavy fog, too — how it absorbs all sound and makes the familiar mysterious.

  10. Very pretty shot. I'm getting a very Mothman Prophecies from it.

    Don't you just love being out there in the fog? It's usually so quiet and calm.

  12. Looks like an old railroad bridge, the blue lights really set it off. There is one in Louisville, that the last time I was there, they were converting to a pedestrian bridge, I don't know if they finished that project.

    1. This one too has been converted to a pedestrian bridge, which takes people from downtown to City Island, for walking, and visiting the various sports venues and eating kiosks. Over the years and sometime in the late 70's early 80's it was deemed too weak for car traffic anymore. And years later in the 90's after a huge winter thaw and hard rains, icebergs floated down the river, taking out three huge sections of the bridge that went from City Island to the Western Shores. And I actually witnessed that!!!!

  13. That picture is absolutely gorgeous, Mads. I have a love hate relationship with fog. Love it when everybody's home and safe. I still freak out a bit because of a movie I saw as a kid. The Crawling Eye. I still expect to see tentacles waiting to snatch my head off! Good movie.

    1. The Crawling Eye!!!!!!!! A vintage classic! You may be one of two people I've ever heard mention that movie. I love those old cult horror movies.

    2. Takes me back to watching Science Fiction Theater with Moona Lisa on Saturday afternoons. That movie stuck with me through the years. The rest were giant bug movies; Them, Tarantula, The Deadly Mantis and one with big ol' locusts or grasshoppers I forget the name of.

    3. Get under the blanket with me...I got the popcorn ready!!! I loved movies and those Science Fiction Theaters and the movies!

  14. Getting up on a misty frosty morning and watching the sunshine on my neighbours' garden is a real treat. The sun doesn't get on my garden until about 3 hours later because of the 40' trees at the end of their garden.

    1. Oh I love the grand old tall trees like that.

  15. The fog is fun, unless you have to drive in it. That's usually how it is out here where I'm at.

    1. I can remember coming home from the Adirondack Mountains once. It was so foggy it was like being inside a cloud. I couldn't tell if I was off the road or on the road, and that was before I had GPS so I had no clue where I was even going or even seeing where I was going.

  16. Milan is the city of fog. Or rather, I should say: it was, because now with climate change the fog is gone.

    1. Oh that's sad. I was going to say if I ever visit we could find a nice foggy corner.
