Misty Monday - In a Fog

Seemingly lost and looking for direction, a solitary man peers into a thick coastal fog in Charleston Harbor.
Luckily his wife was nearby pointing him the right way.

    Wonderful composition Doug. I do like the way the tree branches flow down from the top of the frame.

    Wonderful compositon: the tree, bench, lamppost, and man all fit together very well with the fog, giving the scene a feeling of great loneliness and solitude.

    a reminder of fall or even winter, both in content and execution!
    aren't we lucky to always have someone around to tell us where to go and what to do ?!? ;-))

    concerning yesterday's "mr. mallard" ... i regret to say that there's no mrs. mallard for him this spring! he's one of those males that apparently weren't attractive enough for the females, so he spends his time with another bachelor ... in the water or under the bridge !!

    Eerie, image. Makes me think of an Edward Hopper painting. It makes me feel cold looking at it ( I think that's good!)

    ...and three seconds later he fell of a cliff! I like the strong silhouetted shapes in a range of greys, and the dynamics of the graphics.

    That's what our wives do best. Love the great mood you captured here and the diagonal composition is so very pleasing.
