Sunset in the Mist

The decision was made that sunset photography today would be on the coast where there was a lighthouse, a viewpoint and, of course, a coastline. The weather was warm and sunny as we boarded the truck, but by the time we arrived at the lighthouse, the dreaded mist and fog returned. I tried to get a decent photograph of the lighthouse and failed, and also the sunset and failed at that too. There were some flamingoes wading in the shallow shoreline, and those photos didn't work either so not a very successful visit then!

Fog and mist are common along the coast because the colder and damp Atlantic air meets the warm air over Namibia, hence fog and cloud. I still enjoyed the visit and being out with my camera, even if I have not a lot to show for it.Read more
