Misty Moments


I think everyone, including the weather people were a bit surprised to wake up and finding Nottingham covered by a misty shroud.

Apparently visibility was quite poor at first light, but it had eased a bit when I cycled off to work. Still the fog made a trip through Highfields worthwhile. A shame that it wasn't the 'pea-souper' like England used to get in the 1950s, but it was worth stopping off and trying to get a few shots.

Above you can see the boating lake and can just about make out the clock tower of the Trent building. While below is a low shot of the fallen leaves and some of the railing that surrounds the lake. Shame that all the ducks had hidden themselves away, as one would have added a little extra interest to the picture.

  1. Yup, low shots with Autumn leaves works well- I even got one in the local paper.

  2. The pea soupers weren't much fun. You're probably better off with this atmospheric haze.

  3. Great angle on the Autumnal shot. Love the way it fades into the distance and into the mist. The lines all lead the eye into the centre of the image. It's got an almost romantic poetry to it.
