A foggy morning on Popes Island

A foggy morning on Popes Island

On a recent early morning visit to Popes Island here in New Bedford there was a light hazy fog over the water which made for some cool surreal looking images which I will share here in this post.

I do love mornings like this I find the fog quite soothing and calming and the air almost seems fresher than normal.
Now fog in other areas, like the nearby cemetery can give a totally different feeling a moody gloomy and dark feel. but by the water for me its the opposite.

Of course when its a really dense fog and you can hardly see more than a few feet in front of you isnt so nice and terrible to have to drive in.

How do you feel when out in foggy areas?

This next shot is showing the empty piers and marina with Fairhaven in the background

And the fog gently surrounding some of the commercial fishing boats in the port

A closer in shot of a couple of the commercial fishing boats.
Working on a fishing boat must be such a tough job, out very early morning often dealing with harsh conditions on the water, I must admit that does pass through my mind when I eat fish, thinking of the hard work fisherman have put in to catch it so we can eat it.
and I did mention dangerous I remember reading last year of a couple of incidents where commercial fisherman lost their lives at sea.

and finishing off with another shot of the empty docks inthe marina, a nice glow onthe horizon, I am sure before long I will see the private boats returning tot he water and this marina being full again

The light in the 4th shot is sublime! It looks like an impressionist painting. A beautiful set of atmospheric images.

Thanks so much I did edit with a more painterly style with some of these including the 4th one so thanks for the feedback ;)

Have a great day

Nice photos. Fog does put a surreal feel on the photos. I think you are correct that the feelings you have when encountering fog depend on your surroundings. Always eerie in cemeteries. When I see fog, especially heavy fog, on the water I always think of a horror story named The Fog. It was one of the first horror novels I read when I was still a teenager and it stuck in my head.

I know that novel I also read it may years ago and had forgotten about it,I am sure it will come to mind next time I am out and about in the fog :)

Have a great day

I love the first snap, it is not every day that we get to see such a photograph. Good evening!

thanks for your visit and feedback

Have a great day

You're welcome (^_^)

Your photos around the marina and fishing boats are awesome. That bit of fog really gives the sunrise a nice atmosphere.

My feelings towards fog are the same as yours. I love to be out in the morning when there's a little fog that will lift once the sun gathers strength. It's a kind of magic and calm.

But the cold, heavy fog that lingers the whole day? No thank you!

Ohh yes we feel the same about fog for sure, the winter one that stays all day and is so damp itsd gets intpo ones bones is not fun at all, but a nice soft fog is indeed mysterious and magical

Have a great day

Oh wow, those are some really great shots. I have always loved the color combination of blue and orange, so that last one is really speaking to me. That first one though. The mood it sets is just really hitting home for me.

Thanks I to love the blue orange combo in nature it is pretty special

When I see fog, I feel happy and calm. It encourages me to slow down and appreciate the present moment. It’s refreshing, and I love it! Your photographs are amazing! Thank you for sharing your experience. I’m happy to experience the foggy morning virtually :)

Yes that’s how I feel when seeing fog most times as well it is very calming and refreshing

Have a great day

I think the place has a good name, it seems the name was made according to its history. For now whether there are still whales in the area.

Love the shots! The edit too is so aesthetic❤

Thanks that’s very kind of you to say

Really nice set, that fog makes everything look so dreamy!

Amazing Photos, It makes me calm and makes me think better. 😊

The first and last photos are my favorites!
And the first one, initial look... I thought it was a painting!

Really cool photos. I like how the fog makes the lights look on the boats. We get really dense fog here every once in a while. So dense that we can't see the houses on the other side of the neighborhood. They are usually during the day, so we just try to not drive if it is a heavy fog! Driving in fog at night around here is terrible - no street lights and cars have insanely bright lights usually. It's super dangerous.

Thanks, and yes driving in deep fog is so dangerous I try to avoid it unless I absolutely have to get somewhere

These are gorgeously serene and I love it. I don't know what I like best as they are all great. I see you have that new Sony. How do you like it so far? Something that I just wish for as too expensive for me 😁

Thanks so much so kind of you to say
I do like the new Sony, the extra Megapixels is handy and I am looking forward to trying out the Bird Eye Auto Focus

But then again I was very happy with the A7iii and it is still a very solid camera

Wow.
As a Hive noob and photography enthusiast, it seems I've stumbled on one of the most talented nature and landscape photographers on here! I'm blown away!

Your composition is fantastic, and thank you for sharing your camera settings.
I can rest assured that not everything needs to be shot wide open. 😂

I'm revisiting a semi-rural, riverine community next month, and this time, I'm taking my a7iii and Sigma 24-70mm along. I hope to capture the fantastic sunsets and meandering creeks as you have done!

Well let me say welcome to Hive its a wonderful community and lots of photographer son here

photography is a hobby I have bene into for years, getting out taking photos is my main form of both exercise and relaxation :)

Thanks kindly your support is appreciated
