WINTER WHISPER

Most of Autumn's leaves are moldering on the ground.  Winter is tiptoeing in with gentle frosts and the occasional foggy morning or evening.  It is not coming fast and hard enough for me, being a cold and snow-lover.  But a couple of mornings ago when it looked like there could be dense fog in places, I called Pat and we went on a short ramble.
It turned out to be a wild goose chase, as the fog dissipated before our eyes every place we went.
 While headed back home, we drove along the South Fork of the Snoqualmie River on a favorite wooded route.  
Moody fog gave eerie dimensions and colors:
  


 We were close to Snoqualmie Falls, and habit had us going to check it out.
Too much fog and heavy spray from thunderous run-off obliterated the Falls.
On the way back to the car, I turned around and made these quick 
photos into lighter fog:


Waiting now for heavy frost or snow!

Are these out of your NEW camera? If so, you have learned quickly how to get it to create your hallmark gifts of detail, mystery,and juxtaposition. You are truly a master at "seeing" things and presenting them in that unique way - between the words you write and the pictures themselves - that helps me see them as you did at the time, and in a way I would not have seen them through my own way of looking at things. This is an extraordinary gift. Thank you for sharing!
