A foggy day by happypat

A foggy day

Woke up to quite thick fog this morning which has hung around all day.

When I went to take a few fog photos in the garden all I could hear were a massive flock of wild geese coming towards me but I couldn't see their V shape until they were right overhead.
It sounded wonderful!

Three good things:
1. Nature & how those geese knew exactly where they were going!
2. I have bought a brilliant new backpack for my travels next month. Loads of pockets, looks smart & it must be better than carrying my flight bag on one shoulder the long distance between different terminals at Dubai airport.
3. Two night without getting up in the night! Long may it continue!
Very dean here as well.

Thank you for sharing the sounds of the wild geese! I think this fog/mist is ubiquitous. Bliss not to get up in the night!!!!!

I like this shot - the foreground is nice and flat and the peaked gables of the house are just visible! I totally agree with the shoulder thing! I've got a backpack which can take my camera, my computer, my packed lunch and compass plus a clean handkerchief!

Lovely shot. Backpacks are so much easier when distance is involved. The strap on my shoulder bag broke recently from the sheer weight of everything in there! Oops!

Nice shot, it's been dull here too...hurry up the sunshine - I hate these grey gloomy days. But this is a wonderful capture!

@jesperani I put far too much in mine, I'm hoping to have more sense this time!
January 7th, 2017  
Lovely moody shot. It is bright sunshine here.

@maggiemae well I'm up in the night as you can see! Just going to test drive a herbal sleeping tablet my DIL was given in business class on plane. I need to try it before i get on that long 16 hour flight to see if it agrees! Good chance tonight I think!

@happypat Well as I think with all herbal things - the brain and mind works well or even better than the pill. If you believe it, it will work. Called faith healing at one stage of history!

Yes, when it's foggy you can hear a lot of sounds that typically you might miss. Must be something with the way sound is captured in the fog
January 8th, 2017  
Lovely. Such a wonderful feeling of mystery.
January 8th, 2017  
I loe a bit of fog. The geese (and the backpack!) sound great!
January 8th, 2017  
We just had mizzle and drizzle here, very gloomy. I like the air of mystery and quiet here Pat.
January 8th, 2017  
@maggiemae It didn't work but I only took one tablet Maggie, should have been more daring!
January 8th, 2017  
Loks cold and damp ... but also lovely! I really miss British weather!

Lovely atmospheric shot! Your new backpack sounds awesome and perfect for your travels.

@helly31 😟 I do like the seasons I must say, even if we do like grumbling!

I just love the sound of geese too. I often stop on my way to school and just stare at the sky while they go on their way.
I love the description of your new bag. Counting down for your trip now?
