fog banks often sock us in here on this rather tiny island
on this day we could see only the top of the windmill
the fog is covering up the little city nestled on the other side of the greyish sound
Shining through the branches of a big old pine tree
When Joe comes home from working nights he flops his cap down on the kitchen table. It is an Irish sculls cap and when he wears it with his mask at work they say he looks like a Southie (Irish part of Boston) bank robber. I just like the way it looks on my kitchen table and I’m glad he’s not a bank robber. My sister had to get some scans in Boston and spent the week at my mums. I had them up for dinner one night. This isn’t the greatest picture of her...I think I caught her in mid-chew. Sunday I met with both of my daughters and my grandchildren. We were the only ones in the pizza place and felt comfortable taking our masks off while we ate. It was the first time we’ve all been together in such a very long time. It brought me to tears. I rise before the sun most mornings and see it coming up over the neighboring houses like ribbons of orange and indigo light. One morning this week I happened to glance up and see the crescent moon setting behind the big, old pine while the sky was
The mill is dekorative standing in the fog. I have a lot of mils here, they are fine sculptures in the landscape.

We are having so much fog here also! I love the photo. I could not figure out what it was the top of. And thanks for the post a comment peace poem. That is pretty amazing. I never thought of doing that and you do think out of the box. Refreshing blog. Interesting mind.
ReplyDeleteWow. That is a lot of fog. If it weren't for the top peaking out, I could not tell a windmill was there.
ReplyDeleteThat's what I'd call a real fog.
ReplyDeleteThe Fog is so pretty to me, but it's a bit scary when I try to drive in it. A lovely picture today.

How mystic !
ReplyDeleteWhat is it about fog that is so beautiful to my eyes? A lovely capture!
ReplyDeleteoops! i couldnot tell if its a windmill before reading the text, must say what a foggy blanket. By the way what is the name of this paradise island?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful how the windmill is peaking out of the fog. And the ocean underneath makes it even more special.

At first I thought it was a bird flying over the water, but then I enlarged it. That's some thick fog floating along the ground.
ReplyDeleteWhat an absolutely stunning vignette. We get a lot of fog around here, as well, but I've never seen it captured quite as eloquently as you have done here. Thank you for this remarkable contribution to Thematic Photographic. I hope you share more perspectives with us: there's a new theme already posted.
