Mysterious Monday

18th Century Row Houses, Elliott St., Charleston, SC  © Doug Hickok

What honey? My chocolate chip pancakes are ready? Sorry, I gotta run.
Mysterious Monday continues... to be mysterious.

    Breathtaking photo! I like an atmosphere of the image so much. It could look like as if this was taken either 100 years ago or yesterday.
    I will be following your blog from now on.
    Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day.

    A misty, mysterious picture indeed, and you really caught me with your little novel, all the way to the chocolade chip pancakes... Those made me hungry!
    But while I'm eating I will fantazise about who's merged from within the shadows. :0)

    Cool, mysterious mood. This strange and mysterious atmosphere reminds me of the Woody Allen's movie "Shadows and Fog".

    Ambience can add so much to an image - and this one has it in bucketloads - a great street scene.
