The Fog


The thick fog that rolled in from Galway Bay this morning put me in mind of Dicken's Great Expectations. Luckily, Michael McDowell hasn't quite arranged for prison ships in the bay (not yet, anyway), but it was easier to imagine the Claddagh as it was before almost every square inch of it was built upon - a small seaside community built on a saltmarsh. The ice on the puddles meant that it fell below zero last night - the same is expected tonight.

There's something about the Claddagh in the fog... great photo.

I'm normally not a big fan of symmetry, but it works for you here. Very evocative shot.
