The other day, I was asked to take the kids home after school. When we passed by Riverside Park, I saw a pretty mist coming off the water. I hurried home to grab my camera and drove back.
It was frigid with temperatures around -25°C/-13°F, so I wasn't about to spend much time outside the car. I did hop in and out a few times, and just about froze my fingers off. Man, was it cold!
Here are some of the results from the shoot.

| The mist is quite visible in this one, with the setting sun lighting it up. |

| Actually, this was my first picture, or one of them anyway. |
 |
| Our favourite spot to park is in front of this tree. |
 |
| Same tree. Different shot. |

| From farther down the street, looking through the trees. |

| A parting shot. Home to get warm. |
For newcomers to this blog, there is a Mississippi River that flows through Carleton Place. It is not related to the Mighty Mississippi of the same name.
love the bare trees against those colors!
ReplyDeleteYes, I would have run back home for my camera if these scenes were seen.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful AC, xo
ReplyDeleteThe light and subtle colors are fantastic!
ReplyDeleteI had to go get a sweater ... just looking at those photos chilled me to the bone ... but they are lovely too !
ReplyDeleteWhat makes mist like that?
ReplyDeleteI love how you have captured late afternoon. Wonderful pictures.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous. I didn't know about *the other* Mississippi.
ReplyDeleteWow! Worth freezing the fingers for these. You should enter a couple of them in a contest and watch the ribbons roll in.
ReplyDeleteoh right. mist coming off the water. as someone gave me a lift home I saw that and thought I should go back with my camera. but then I was home and warm and whatnot. totally forgot.
