A Bridge Too Hazy

On the day that I photographed the icicles, we were downtown and walked past town hall to the river. I was surprised to see how thick the mist was. It was so misty that I could barely see what I was shooting through the viewfinder. It comes from the spray from the falls/rapids. It is not usually like this, but at certain temperatures, the mist gets suspended in the air.


That's the trail bridge (old railway bridge) seen from the main bridge though a telephoto lens. It's a unique photo, so I am pleased with it although it is not spectacular in any way.

I zoomed in much more, close to 350mm of its 400mm capability, for the next photo.


Someday soon, I would like to return to the trail bridge and photograph back this way toward the main bridge. I have done this many times already, but every time is different.

  1. That spray makes for an interesting effect, almost foggy! (We've had a ton of fog lately.)

  3. Even here, it changes day to day. I love it. I cannot walk in the forest today, though. Nor yesterday. What a mess.

  4. You're right that every time it's different and there are many things that get together to make it different..

  11. Reading this post a bit later than usual, but the fog you showed here has been around this area most of the day with warming temps and melting snow. Unlike yourself, I stayed indoors and did not venture out for any photos.

  12. I believe I caught a glimpse of my old colleague, Sherlock Holmes, there in the mist. Actually in the midst of the mist. Okay, I'll stop. Nice pictures.

  14. I have actually always liked the mysterious look of mists. We didn't have misty days often in Illinois where we lived, but I liked walking in it. I enjoyed seeing these photos.

  15. Ooooh I like these mysterious misty photos. We had an exceedingly misty/drizzly/foggy day this week. And I had to be out in it all day! Most disconcerting. No photos were taken. xoxo
