On a hazy overcast day at the Biltmore Estate in Asheville, NC, I noticed a water reflection of the Estate in the distance and then worked the boat into the frame. Hope you like it.
For at least 60 years I've dreamed of standing on Corcovado on a brilliant sunny day with crystal clear views into the distance. Imagine then my disappointment at the haze of mist that shrouded the view when my dream was realized. "Make the most of it", I told myself, and just as well I did, because the weather only got worse with each passing day. This was as good as my childhood dream was ever going to get; I can tick this one off my bucket list.
Hang on to your hopes
That’s an easy thing to say
But if your hopes should pass away
Simply pretend
That you can build them again
But look around
The leaves are brown
And the sky is a hazy serenity of autumn
(free translation by me, author Paul Simon)
Enjoy your weekend dear friends!
Hugs, Addy and ♱ Prince Alfie
....and endings as it happened!
Morning dog-walk looking towards the A1 and the coast (honest!). From a new-to-me i-phone, actually a frame extraction from a mistakenly taken video (ie I meant to take a photo!).
HFF!

Challenging weather = more effort to find the right motives

Pigeon Point Lighthouse is located on the Pacific coastline along Highway 1 about 5 miles south of Pescadero, California. On this day it was a bit hazy and not a great day for taking pictures of the beautiful pacific coastline, but it seemed appropriate for the lighthouse; which was built in 1871 to guide ships on their way to the San Francisco Bay.

Мы постепенно двигались в сторону основной точки съемки, до рассвета оставался примерно час. Туман продолжал сгущаться и на сильном морозе мы целиком покрылись инеем. Ярко светила полная луна, на рассвете она стала оранжевой. Все это создавало отличные условия для съемки. Времени было полно и мы особо не торопились, фотографировали всякое. Это один из таких снимков, ничего особенного, просто туманный рассвет.
We gradually moved towards the main shooting point, about an hour remained until dawn. The fog continued to thicken and in the bitter cold we were completely covered with frost. The full moon shone brightly, turning orange at dawn. All this created excellent conditions for shooting. There was plenty of time and we were not particularly in a hurry, taking pictures of everything. This is one of those shots, nothing special, just a hazy sunrise.
Wildfires occur when all the necessary elements of a fire triforce come together in a susceptible area: an ignition source is brought into contact with a combustible material such as vegetation that is subjected to enough heat and has an adequate supply of oxygen from the ambient air. A high moisture content usually prevents ignition and slows propagation, because higher temperatures are needed to evaporate any water in the material and heat the material to its fire point. Dense forests usually provide more shade, resulting in lower ambient temperatures and greater humidity, and are therefore less susceptible to wildfires. Less dense material such as grasses and leaves are easier to ignite because they contain less water than denser material such as branches and trunks. Plants continuously lose water by evapotranspiration, but water loss is usually balanced by water absorbed from the soil, humidity, or rain. When this balance is not maintained, plants dry out and are therefore more flammable, often as a consequence of droughts.
A very special summertime sunset in the coast of northern Spain, where the dark clouds left the right empty spot for the sun to show up just before hiding in the horizon. The atmosphere was slightly misty and allowed for capturing the coast and rocks’ silhouettes with enough sharpness.

Un anochecer de verano especial en la costa de Lugo, donde las oscuras nubes dejaron el espacio justo para que el sol se viera inmediatamente antes de ponerse. La atmósfera estaba ligeramente húmeda, lo justo para que la neblina no impidiera ver el detalle de las siluetas de la costa y las peñas.
