Downtown Fog

On a day that could be drizzly, downtown seemed to be a good choice for a walk. If the skies were to open there would be stores to duck into. I am just as glad that didn't happen, though.

It's also a good place to be in the fog — down by the river, I mean. I am very pleased with this pano crop.


Here is one that we took for Sue's photo of the day. Her prompt was guard, and Sue was prepared to guard her hair under the umbrella. I like the background that Sue chose.


I took another of her later — just because, no prompt required. The night light was on shining up from underneath and lighting the tree trunk. I wish that I had gotten that in focus too, but portrait mode just cared about Sue. 


We passed two signs as part of the downtown fall decorations. I like the whimsy and wordplay. I thought there was something wrong with the choice of grate and not great, but if you look at the street below the sign, just maybe there was method in the madness.

  1. Portrait mode is a lot of fun and your use captured a lovely casual photo of your lady. Also, your trees in fog pano was quite seasonal and in a couple more weeks should be spectacularly colorful. The grate-ful sign was appropriately placed, a good funy.

  2. That fog is enchanting. I happen to adore fog as long as I don't have to drive far in it.

    I love the whimsical signs in your town. So cheery and well decorated.

  6. That fog panorama is beautiful. The picture of Sue peaking out from the tree camera at the ready made me giggle. "Who is shooting who?" Followed immediately by "this town ain't big enough for the two of us, pardner!"

  12. My daughter and I were out for breakfast this morning. We were heading west into town and it sure looked like we were driving into a heavy downpour. Oh my, it was FOG. Haven't seen it that thick in a very long time.

  22. Is there, perhaps, a grate down there? Your lady has style and humour. As do you. And my camera phone defeats me. I have been told and told how to work it, but the results are, um, disgraceful.
