The Journey Home
The magic that gleams an instant between Argos and Odysseus is both the recognition of diversity and the need for affection across the illusions of form. It is nature's cry to homeless, far-wandering, insatiable man: "Do not forget your brethren, nor the green wood from which you sprang. To do so is to invite disaster."
— Loren Eiseley (The Unexpected Universe)

I do so much like your Foggy morning picture. At first it seemed a cold foggy morning but it is strange..as you keep staring at the picture, especially at the sun, it turns so very warm and brightens up. I loved the sun rise and it is this that warms up the picture
