Foggy day....
Yesterday was very misty, with the sun breaking through eventually for a couple of hours and then the rain descending with greyness all around. I loved the mist, casting fantasy over the landscape.
These photos were taken down by the old buildings at Sandside. Above, the Hoy Hills have disappeared!
Looking towards Stromness, or a castle with turrets, or the land of Unicorns?
The Manse and Community hall have disappeared into the mist, just the turquoise sea in the bay....
And a hazy Hoy High Lighthouse!
What is hidden in the mist beyond? Be there dragons?
And in case there be dragons, Button is in hiding....

Dragons in the mist - how that would be something! You have such lovely open views there. Thank you for sharing them with the rest of us.
ReplyDeleteThat's one of the many things I love about living here - the wide horizons - mist alloweing!
DeleteI jolly well hope there's dragons. And I will attempt to prove it during National Dragonfly Week, 15-23 July 2017.
ReplyDeleteWe have room for a few small dragons!
DeleteYesterday was 82 degrees here after a record-breaking rainy season but I am envious of your mist and vistas!
ReplyDeleteI am not good in high temperatures so I'll stick with our much lower ones! Though I do love to feel the warm sun on my skin.
DeleteSensible Button!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely! Wish I was a well cared for cat sometimes too!
DeleteBeautiful misty photos. Waiting for the dragon pics next!
ReplyDeleteOur dragons are quite shy ;-)
