In the spirit (with sincere thanks to @NotAHope@mastodon.social!) I present to you an evening of beautiful, colourful, exceptionally frustrating fog. I didn't know how to handle the bright lights, so everything was either overexposed, or blurry, or both. I was missing some lovely moments flushed with colour and was panicking trying to get settings right. I also struggled to compose shots even though I was practically being handed fantastic scenes on a silver platter.

I find it really interesting, because I love photography, and it was an evening with a lot of potential, but it was not a particularly pleasant experience. Perhaps it seems like a squandered gift.

I want to like these shots, and if I saw them on someone else's profile, I probably wouldn't think twice about it. A part of me doesn't want to post these up at all, and another part of me has selected the best of the worst as the cover image as some kind of consolation prize.

Weird.

Fujikawaguchiko, Yamanashi, Japan

A night photograph of a street in light fog, with a set of traffic lights and a pedestrian crossing centre-frame. There are lights everywhere including the red traffic lights, as well as blooming bright white lights from a bus in the distance. The road is wet and reflective amplifying the light. Around seven pedestrians are crossing from left to right. Most pedestrians are carrying transparent white PVC umbrellas. A night photograph of a street in light fog. There is a multi-story building in the background which appears to be an office or apartment building. Most windows are illuminated and two square windows are glowing particularly brightly with a purple hue - you cannot see anything else in them. At the road level there is a coach bus on the opposite side of the road, and in the foreground on the right there is the front of another coach bus. The arm of what I presume is the driver can be seen gesturing, perhaps inviting a passenger to board or disembark. There are street lights on the opposite side of the road which glow like small suns and are suspended on thin poles that hook around the outside of the globe. A night photograph of a street in light fog. To the right of the photo is a coach bus facing at a 45º angle. The bus has various lights on the lower front that reflect off the surface of the road, creating yellow and blue gradients. The coach features other lights and signage including a digital destination sign, a horizontal strip light, headlights, side lights, internal lighting, and some bright lights at the top corners. In the background is a small parking lot, some buildings at a medium distance, some power poles, a parking sign, and a pedestrian crossing. A night photograph of a coach bus in light fog. The bus is wrapped in advertising print for "Fuji Q Highland - Fuji Views, Extreme Thrills" and pictures a roller coaster full of people with Mt Fuji in the background. On the bus there is one person in the middle reaching up to load or unload an item from the overhead storage bins who is wearing a black-and-white striped shirt and has long curly hair, a few more people towards the back of the bus who are hard to distinguish, and the driver. Behind the bus is a building bathed in yellow light. The building is mostly white with a brown wooden frame so it readily shows the light reflecting on it.

There are lights everywhere including the red traffic lights, as well as blooming bright white lights from a bus in the distance. The road is wet and reflective amplifying the light. Around seven pedestrians waiting on the left side of the road ready to cross.

looks beautiful from the ground, but with a well-planned flight and the right window seat, you can see how beautiful it looks from the air.

I used tools like Flightradar24 to make an informed guess as to my possible flight path, and seat maps like the ones on aerolopa.com to make sure my seat aligns with a window.

Snow settling on a thatched roof in Shirakawa, with some stalactites forming.

Shirakawa, Gifu, Japan

A phototograph of snow falling on a thatched roof. The angle is from the ground upwards. The photo is framed in such a way that the image is sliced diagonally from the bottom left to the top right, with the upper-left half of the image predominantly white with snow, and the lower-right half of the image predominantly brown with the ends of the twigs from the thatched roof. There is light in- and out-of-focus snow drifting through the frame. Where the snow meets the edge of the thatched roof, small stalactite icicles are forming. The sky is homogeneous grey cloud.

A photo of the beautiful Mt. Fuji, taken from Oishi Park area on Christmas Eve last year.

There was a fascinating cloud formation something akin to a ring which I can't say I've seen in person before. I suspect it's probably not uncommon for mountains of this size and shape but I don't have a lot of these where I live. A quick search tells me that this might be a cap cloud.

大石公園

A photograph of Mt Fuji in the distance. The composition is as follows: in the foreground, a layer of lakeside foliage - reeds or something similar. A thin slice of a view of the lake. In the middle portion of the image is a view of the opposite side of the lake, where some trees can be seen in the middle, and a small number of buildings can be seen either side. The upper half of the image is taken up by Mt Fuji and the sky. Most of the mountain is distant and covered in trees, but the upper portion is snow-capped. The very top of the mountain is hidden by a donut-shaped ring of cloud. The lower-left portion of the mountain is obscured by ground-level foggy cloud. The reeds in the foreground also break through parts of the image in the lower-left centre and the right third. It's an overcast winter day, with browns, whites, and autumnal hues dominating the colour palette.
