Here is my monthly non long exposure shot. While many of us would like to have seen more sea fog at the Golden Gate in recent months, there have been a few key events to marvel at. It's a very simple phenomenon, to be sure, but makes for interesting photography, nonetheless.
The thing with this moment (and do mean moment) was the way the hill just seemed to grow a fuzzy wool sweater of fog.
Thanks for having a look!

Every morning, at nearly every weather, there's at least one group performing Taiji (太极拳 tàijíquán) on the Bund. Taken on a cold December morning, just before the sun appears behind the Pudong skyscrapers.

After all the show lights are off there's still enough of it. At night also the fog creeps in...

Située au cœur du Vieux-Lyon, la Cathédrale Saint-Jean, appelée aussi Primatiale Saint-Jean (siège du primat des Gaules), est un édifice mélangeant les styles gothique et roman. Sa construction s'étend sur trois siècles, de 1175 à 1481.
Elle a été au cours des siècles le théâtre d'évènements politiques et historiques importants : 2 conciles s'y sont déroulés en 1245 et 1274; le Pape Jean XXII y est couronné en 1316 ; le 13 décembre 1600, la cathédrale abrite le mariage d'Henri IV et de Marie de Médicis.

Long exposure shot of Mary's Shell at sunset shot in autumn / fall 2015. Mary's shell is a steel sculpture / public art on Cleveleys beach near Blackpool in Lancashire, England. It was installed on 25 September 2013. It is entirely exposed at low tide you can climb inside. At high tide only the highest part of the sculpture is visible above the waves. The sculpture is 4.6m tall, 8 m long and weighs 16.5 tonnes and has words from the story "Sea Swallow" etched inside.
1950 Buick Super convertible car in Havana photographed on the last day of my holiday in Cuba. It was a hot sunny day and ideal for tourists taking a tour of Old Havana in these old american convertible cars.
I have loved his rough look from the day I met him. His name suits his looks - and if he wore clothes, it had to be denim...
Many thanks to David for suggesting the music, which of course must be ZZ Top's Rough boy. :)

"Escalation II" King's Cross St. Pancras Station, London, UK
A typical Danish Christmas Eve in my childhood home. Father has lit the candles, the doors have been opened and the family let in for the traditional dancing and singing around the Christmas tree.
Left to right: Myself disguised as "Yule man", sister Lene, neighbour and occasional nanny Marie, uncle Richard, eldest brother Elon and our father Frode. The picture was shot by brother Leon - and our mother Lily had probably found an excuse for not being on the photo... ;)

"Stripes" King's Cross St. Pancras Station, London, UK
Ce pont piétonnier était surchargé de cadenas d'amour mis par des touristes. Mais il y en avait tellement que le poids des cadenas (estimé à 45 tonnes !) était devenu un risque pour la structure du pont.
La municipalité de Paris a donc décidé de les retirer en juin dernier.
Nous verrons plein d'autres cadenas d'amour dans notre balade.

The Pont des Arts (Arts Bridge)
This pedestrian bridge was overloaded by lovelocks placed by tourists. But there were so many that the weight of the padlocks (estimation of 45 tons !) had become a risk for the structure of the bridge. . .
So, Paris municipality decided to remove them last June.
We will see plenty of other lovelocks in our stroll.

Le front de Saône est la partie la plus belle de Mâcon.
On y trouve de nombreuses terrasses de café, de bons restaurants, des maisons colorées.
On peut aussi se promener sur l'esplanade Lamartine en bord de Saône, ainsi nommée en souvenir du poète Lamartine, né à Mâcon en 1790.

"Red Pillar Post Box", Regent Street, London, UK
Les bords de la Saône sont des endroits très plaisants pour les promeneurs.
On y trouve aussi de bons petits restaurants, où on peut déguster des spécialités régionales comme le Poulet de Bresse ou un plat de grenouilles.

A good meal, served wtih Poulliy-Fuisse wine, are you tempted ?
The banks of the Saone river are very pleasant places for walkers.

Je suis venu plusieurs fois à cet endroit admirer de près la Roche de Solutré et je ne me lasse pas de cette vue spectaculaire.
Ce jour là, au coucher du soleil, la Roche et les vignes environnantes étaient illuminées de belles couleurs.

Rock at sunset
I went several times to this place closely admire Solutre'Rock and I don't get tired of this spectacular view.
On that day, at sunset, the Rock and the surrounding vineyards were illuminated with beautiful colors.
