hardy

surprisingly there were some golfers on the McCleery Golf Course despite the soupy air...they must be hardy and very determined


orginally a farm run (from the 1860s) by the pioneering McCleery brothers, the city bought the land in the 1950s and developed it as a golf course...hardly an improvement, yet greenspace was maintained

It doesn’t seem too inviting to play golf. Very well composed. V

Must be challenging playing underwater golf.
Love the mood of this image. V

Very atmospheric capture, following the flight of a golf ball might be a challenge. V

Well guess it's better than playing in a lightning storm! Excellent shot here, David. V

Neat shot with the trees disappearing in the fog, and nice with the determined golfers. "V"

Ghostly trees and silhouettes emerging from fog... Almost a surreal image with a drop of Magritte. V.

Can't imagine how you would see where your ball went! Nicely composed.

It must be hard to see where the ball has landed. V

Dedicated golfers for sure! Maybe they like the challenge the fog presents. V

Very nice misty gold course scene.

Very well composed and a good greens view. I'd hate to have to find the ball after the drive in this soup.

not the best weather for golf.They would have to use GPS to direct the balls.V.

Great capture, but I sure can't imagine it would be too pleasant to play golf in that dense fog.

They are dedicated to the game for sure. Wonder of any of their shots was as good as yours.
