Mist

I went for a drive around the Cooley peninsula this afternoon in search of gates for the monthly challenge. A heavy
mist crept over the mountains spoiling my hopes of catching the 'golden hour' before sunset. If you look carefully
you can see a flock of Lapwings feeding in this field which isn't far from the coast.

Fab landscape - that encroaching misty-cloud-stuff looks quite menacing

A beautiful Irish scene. A worthy substitute for a "golden hour" photo.

Wonderfully ominous. That cloud seems almost alive as it creeps forward.

Reminds me of our visit to San Francisco where the low mist regularly rolls off the mountains and into the bay. V

Looks great with that mist, the lapwings are a wonderful addition to the scene. v

Well seen and caught - I love it when you get these transient weather moments - you can never be quite certain what is going to happen.

A very wintery feel here. Lovely low cloud.

The cloud rolling over the hill is superb and seeing the lapwings is an added bonus - we have breeding pairs here, but generally they're declining in numbers.

Nicely caught; the mist almost seems to have a life of its own, reaching out to smother the hill. I can almost feel the chill in the air...
