Fog
18.10.22
I’ve been waiting for a misty morning to grab a few shots of this fallen tree, hidden off a path in St Pierre Park. Unfortunately the fog was clearing quicker than I could drive but I’m still quite pleased with it.

Half the island’s coastline was swamped in fog for most of the day. I had some ideas but none of them turned out as I planned. This field caught my eye on the drive back from Jerbourg. Might try it again at sunrise in the hope of a nice thin layer of mist on the grass?

I always venture up to this spot round this time of year but try to time it as close to low tide as possible to really emphasise the crystal clear waters and the extent of the sandy beach at Petit Bot.

The mist was a little bit thick to get down low but managed an abstract of the loophole and the radar station in the background.

As the day turned into night, the winds dropped and the mist started to form. I spotted loads of opportunities with the streetlights but this was what I had in my mind.

Fog & Signal Station at St Martins Point.
I came here yesterday but the sun was only visible through a tiny break on the horizon so I decided to return this morning with a bit more light in my favour. I had to shield the camera from the wind and wipe the filters after each shot which was a pain in the arse because all my cleaning cloths are now coated in salty water.

Having carefully planned to head somewhere else this morning, I woke up late and left myself very little time for travel. There’s a field by my house which is always covered with a layer of mist on clear, calm nights so it’s I know whenever there’s mist in the field, it’s very likely the common land will be misty too.
So calm and peaceful when it’s like this!

A typical summers day as the weather warms up. This shot reminds me of one of the lochs we drove past in Scotland, an eerie but calm and gentle feel to it.

The most south easterly point of the island, St Martins Point. A few hundred steps down to an amazing place, watching the fishing boats chugging past and the mesmerising currents flowing through.

This sums up the last two days, thick hill fog but a pleasant temperature to be out hiking. The fields around Pleinmont are looking stunning at the moment and a perfect place to get away from life.

This was not what I had planned, I set out to capture the fog over Herm and Jethou but I could see the sun illuminating the coast from round the corner so ran as fast as I could (and nearly died) to catch the light as it beamed over the hill.

Always loved this quaint little cottage at the foot of Petit Bot. Seeing the smoke from the chimney just made it even more inviting on a murky day like today.

Rush hour on a Wednesday evening. The only difference, most were already at home! Normally backed up with hundred of cars, it felt like a ghost town tonight.

Almost 30 minutes of standing in a whiteout hoping for the smallest clearing down to the beach and then as if someone turned on a switch, the clearing I waited for.

The fog was really thick in the higher parishes for most of the day. Love the eerie atmosphere you can achieve with fog.

Bleak, misty midwinter’s day on the rock. I do love wandering the lanes when it’s foggy.

The 5th day of non stop rain and it’s getting harder and harder to find inspiration. I don’t really want to push the weather sealing on the camera too much more!
However, the misty rain rolled in and there was only on place I could think of to make the best out of a pretty crap day. Think this is the third version this year, it’s just up a path from Saints Bay road. It reminds me of the creature form Stranger Things.

If Guernsey did views! Oh wait, they do and they’re right on your doorstep. This was my second visit today because why not? This morning’s fog was just too dense but by midday the fog had lifted enough to get a decent view across to Icart.
