Ben Lomond - above the mist

Very nice, Billy! I know what you mean! Fog makes everything look much softer and sometimes mysterious. That's why I like it so much. This morning everything was covered in fog, so I abandoned my house work, took my camera and shot some photos...You often have fog in Scotland, I suppose, especially this time of the year, don't you? Have a nice evening. Greetings, Anne

We do get a fair amount of fog first thing in the morning. I often see it rolling off the water on the lake I pass on the way to work. I've never taken a photo so maybe tomorrow!

Gute Nacht! Anne

Billy

That must be a wonderful sight, Billy! Yes, you really should take photos and I'm looking forward to seeing them...Gute Nacht, Billy! Anne

Surely a great feeling. I know when I take such a shot: reality goes far beyond with light, colours, solitude, smell, noise or lack of it! Kasia

Very perceptive comment Kasia. Under these conditions the silence was deafening! Incredible experience. :)

It is not such a common event Billy to find yourself flying above the clouds like this.

There is something, quite tangible, something mystical and magic in the air, which always seems so much purer, so much sweeter, when you are flying above the clouds

Cheers my friend.

Thank you for visiting Billy...

How was the feeling that time?

We have been very impressed when we got the view i tool for that over the fogg pictures.

Btw: during our drive up to Inverness we had a stop in Luss which seems to be near at Ben Lomond. Just 2 years after you took that picture - lol

cheers Michael
