Mists return to Dorset
Its been a while since there was a misty morning forecast here, but this week we got two!
The forecast this morning was for fog, but I decided it was worth a look. A cold'ish night after a warm day, with clear skies, was a good omen. The fog seemed quite thick as I headed off to the local Dorset landmark of Colmers Hill, climbing up Quarr Hill to get a good viewpoint.
As I arrived on the top of Quarr Hill, I came out of the fog and the view that greeted me was one that will stay with me. The trees of Colmers were just poking out of the fog! I had arrived well before sunrise, and the lovely pre-dawn golden glow coming up on the horizon with dark blue skies above made for a wondrous view.
The morning continued in that vein with a glorious sunrise, the mists swirling across the valleys of the Marshwood Vale with a few clouds thrown in for good measure to capture the morning glow of dusky pinks. Wow, what a great start to the day. A true inspiration.
