“It amazes me when mist
Mist ~ Alice Oswald
chloroforms the fields
and wipes out whatever world exists…
…and a crow
calls down to me in its treetop voice
that there are webs and drips
and actualities up there”
A cold spell followed by a warm front brought two days of mist and so out I went with my camera on a solitary silent walk that was quite marvellous.





More than a photo a day here but still am linking to the citysonnet challenge: nature
Nice image.
could not choose just one for this prompt though!
They all work but the opening image of the tree and disappearing power lines was the stand out for me.
I agree hence made it the feature – and it was almost the last one I shot so evidently I found the right mood! could not leave the others aside to just gather dust in the archive though
In the past I would have picked one without obviously man made objects but recently I’ve been including them in some of my shots.
Lovely photos! I love misty days!
something intimate about the closed in misty views
Lovely photos. It reminds me of misty mornings in my home town in northwestern Minnesota. I would love to photograph the city (I’ve since moved to Denver) on a cold misty morning. I think 400tx pushed a few stops would be perfect for that.
Anyway, glad to have found your blog, and thank you for the inspiration.
thanks for your visit here Tobias – if only WP had let me know you were pending sooner!
I like your misty pics much better than mine. Methinks I need to go back to editing and try more different b&w edits…
I shot these in B&W – something I often do as it shows me what the eventual outcome will look like when I process the RAW
Now I am feeling guilty for not going out in the mist and capturing such inspirational views. And what a lovely poem. It could have been written about here.
Isn’t that poem perfectly wonderful – such a find to match the images here
Oh, you really are making the most of the fog…. in such a wonderful way!
it’s nature providing some theatre for the photographer 😉
Nature provides but photographer captures like a film director! 😉 This one is very talented!
Just the kind of uplift I need right now as my photography mojo has mostly been missing – thank you dear Marina x
I’m so happy you enjoyed this, however I seriously doubt your photography mojo’s missing! 😉 xoxoxo
