Our temperatures in Seattle are not as extreme as in other areas of the country and we slip a little more slowly into each season as the months go by. The red leaves linger until the winds pick up over the Sound and strips the trees, but even then a few stubborn ones hold on for a bit longer.
I drove around the neighborhood and the park above the harbor on a foggy day this past weekend and got some shots I thought I'd share with you.
The benches are empty.
Fog, mysterious, ghostly.Still holding on. A touch of color, red amongst the evergreen, a few bare limbs.
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.

Snowing in Ohio -- it's pretty to look at but hell for driving.

I gazed longingly at your pictures today. It was 93 degrees F.
You still seem to have a few leaves hanging on to trees - ours are bare... I love these misty pictures. And Winter anyway :-)
Fog is so mysterious. Your photos are fabulous!
I love the quality that fog brings to a photo.
