  1. Gorgeous, that looks like a sky clearing after one of last weeks downpours.

    1. We've been enveloped in fog for two days and this shot was taken just as it began to lift. It was after 8.30pm as the sun ( well hidden) began to set. We've had thunderstorms and torrential rain too.

    1. The thunderstorm and rain had visited us earlier Gemma.
      We've had fog for two days and this was taken just as the fog was lifting.

    1. It was rather eerie Louise because the fog that has been with us for two days finally decided to lift. I just loved the light as the hidden sun began to set.

  4. What a beautiful image - I wonder what caused that gap in the middle of the photo?

    1. It's the view from the rear of our house Victoria,
      The gap was the fog finally lifting after two days... Causing a very strange sunset.

    1. Thank you Sara, I was pleased with the outcome as I wasn't sure it would show just how atmospheric the scene was. Two days of fog finally lifting to a strange sunset.

    1. Well that clearing is rather a long way off Sherry. You'd definitely need your hiking boots on.
      We are surrounded with cow parsley which is positively humming with visiting bees.

    1. Oh we desperately wanted the light to emerge Cathy, because we'd been living in thick fog for two days. It was a very strange sunset and I'm glad I captured it.

  9. Such a lovely photo. It has such a calming sense to it. Are those white flowers called cow parsley or am I totally wrong? :) #MySundayPhoto

    1. You are totally right Fiona, we have them completely surrounding us and they positively hum with bees.

  10. Beautiful, is it the calm before or after the storm?

    Thank you for linking up

    1. It was the other way round Darren... the calm after the storm. We had torrential rain with thunder and lightning plus fog for two days. Horrible when you see the rest of the country bathed in beautiful sunshine.
      Thanks for hosting and visiting my place. Have a great Sunday.

    1. Thanks Zena,
      There are masses of wild flowers all around our garden (and some inside it too) which are helping to keep the bees very happy.

  12. The weather has been crazy this week up here, a mixture of everything. Your pic really captures it. Summer bloom with thunderstorms and overcast hot weather

    1. It sounds like you've had the same weather as us, although for two days we were engulfed with fog. The air was very heavy when I noticed that the fog was finally lifting to reveal a very strangely lit sunset. I was pleased with the outcome of the photo.

    1. That fog in the distance had been up close and very personal for far too long Jayne. Two days to be exact and I was glad to see it finally lift.

      It was so strange and different from the usual sunset.

    1. The air was very still Jane,
      I've not seen the light or a sunset like it. As the fog finally lifted after two days it really was something that shouted to me to capture.
