Scotch mist

The phrase 'Scotch mist' is used humorously to refer to something that is hard to find or doesn't exist - something imagined. Maybe it was all a dream – it was very early for me after all here in Aberfoyle.
And no, it was not me who left the red ribbon there for photographic balancing effect! (to stop the picture from falling over right-ways) :)

Enjoy full size and have a great week.

Aye, we don't see many scenes quite like this here either. We had quite a lot of misty weather during the winter but it was usually very dull with it -not very inspiring at all. Glad you liked it.

Yes, in my old days of real photo clubs we used to say it was wise to take something red or yellow to add interest to a scene. I never did though! A fortunate instance here. Glad you liked it.

I love the quality of the light in this one Herb.................the mist just glows beautifully. I love the blue of the sky and the lush green of the grass with the hint of dew and frost. The fence and gate contrast nicely with the softness of the background. Such a shame I can't give more than one star..!!

HFF to you. Have a splendid weekend.

It almost could be described as elusive and imaginary, Herb, if it weren't so wonderfully soft and glowing! The early morning frost on the grass works well with it and the red ribbon is just perfect.

I love this dreamy misty image.
Although I'm not Scottish:-) I was born in a region of northern Italy where the winter mists muffled countryside and cities and made us live in a dreamlike atmosphere.
They are gone now, but when I find them again on my travels, I stop and immerse myself in them to breathe in, even!, the smell of the fog.
Thank you for this beautiful vision so evocative for me!
Best wishes to you Herb
