Gorilla in the Mist or not!
Jane Goodall or whoever coined the phrase "gorillas in the mist" weren't thinking along these lines, but hey whatever it fits the bill.

nice pic Frank. It was a little thicker early this morning out in the bay. Thank god for gps. At least the lighting held off way out to the east, unlike the early morning before which chased me off the water at 2 am in a driving rain and vivid lighting display, pretty scary. . How did you do this morning ? heard it was good.

Neat, the lights along the shore add a lot to the composition.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

The only thing about taking a great picture is being at the right place at the right time with the right eye and the right equipment, the right light, the right subject, and then remembering to push the shutter button.
Other than that, it is easy, right?
Great Pic!

it "is" a stunning photo Swimmer
I too ............love the fog...
especially when it drifts into the mountains in China
those type of scenes ect... or being on the water
when I first looked at your thumbnail tho~ ,
i thought it was a side of the mountain scene because
you turned the camera 90 degrees.
and because of how much shore line you framed in the shot....
as i like "desktop" nature shots...
so i changed the perspective a bit ( Not to rob your thunder )
just to see how it would look....

Great pic but it looks more like a Yeti. I think gorillas are vegeterians anyways.

Yes, that's what I meant, all wildmen the same. Although you'd think they have to be related, so this might have been one of the pesky tourist yetis visiting his skunk ape uncle on the shore.
