A misty Sunday morning.

The wind was coming in from the west across the Atlantic ocean.

And of course, the mountains turned a whiter shade of pale from the cold mist.

"Communication with pictures" was the logo of George Eastman, the founder of the Kodak camera empire.

I found that logo so true, as my own style on my blog here on Hive, is also to communicate with pictures. Someone said that every picture can tell a thousand stories, and I think it meant that you and I, and a thousand others will read a story of the same picture differently. Why? Simply because we are all different, and our thoughts are also different.
Be that as it may, I have found that pictures, especially quality pictures, seem to satisfy many people, and when I look at the replies it tells me that the correspondents view the pictures in their own ways, by their descriptions of them.

Some low clouds also hung around at ground level.

And later there was a bigger cloud buildup.

Later in the day, things became a bit clearer but not by much.

Even the moon seemed to be a bit pale.

Two shots below also of some changes in the cloud cover.

So, we took a drive down towards the sea, and you can see how the mist was driven inland on the mountains in the background of the picture.

At sunset we only had this one little cloud of note.

If things turn out "normal", then the next few days will also be misty, but the wind can change direction at the blink of an eye and then the sun will be set free to scorch the land again. We had a few very hot days here recently, and we see the mist as a cool blessing. It is no fun to get into bed on a hot and sweltering night, as sleep becomes almost impossible. We are now in the early stages of March, and we are waiting for the 20th of March, as then the Autumn Equinox will appear. Then, we will step into the start of Autumn (Fall), while all of the Northern Hemisphere will step into the Spring season. And so, we look forward to the cooler days as we certainly have had enough of the blazing African sun.
Such is life.

I hope you enjoyed the pictures and the story.

And a beauiful story it was! I love the mist...watching it move, like a living being, being in it, hiding in it, the feelof it in my lungs. I just love all of it.

Oh yes, you can see that we also love the mist and the changes that accompanies it. Mysterious stuff, and some real beauty all round. Glad that you also like it Tammy. !LOL

there is something interesting on the top of the mountain in the first picture, is it a satellite tower?
btw, the view of the mountain is also very beautiful, the mist with a little sunlight gives a mysterious and dramatic impression.

Those are all signal and radio towers. Glad that you liked the post, and mist always have a mysterious effect on one's mind.

Very beautiful photographs. Misty and clouds give it an almost mystical appearance.Bravo

Well captured pictures keep it up

Amazing. My favorite is the one of the moon.

Thanks, and if the weather holds, then I plan to soon do a moon series post. !LOL

Wow! Beautiful mountains and views

Thank you kindly!

I love the picture of the moon, it looks pale, as though it want to be full but ended up looking crescent

Blame the mist for the pale moon.

Very nice

Your reflection on photography and how each person interprets images differently are truly insightful. The way you describe the shifting weather and mist rolling creates a vivid and almost poetic atmosphere. Looking forward to more of your stunning captures and observations as the season change!

Thank you for the nice description of the post, and it's our differences that makes the world go round.

The picture of the moon is absolutely stunning! Thanks a lot for sharing!

Thank you, and I am glad that you liked the moon image.
