Wink ScottyB gets lost in the fog! (56K Warning)

OK, not really lost

I woke up this morning to solid fog outside my window. Living on the top of a hill, this isnt something you see every day

Anyways, decided to leave for work early and went down to the Lake for some snaps.

Lake Macquarie wasnt even there!










And a few MINI pics to keep this on topic







Cheers,
Scotty

Dan - had the high-beams on to start with, but with the fog I thought they were a bit too overpowering, especially over the longer shutters required

Shell - ta And no, there was no lying down for those photos!

Sunny - cheers! LOL yeah, I showed them to a few of the UK'ers earlier on this morning, and then was like 'hey, why am I showing pics of fog to you guys! Its just the norm for you'

Except for those two days of summer in July
Seriously, I reember driving to Bingley Hall , Stafford to see a Black Sabbath concert ( cue sarky remarks and hitting a bank of freezing fog on the M6 , surely the worst driving condition ...apart from the black ice ...snow.... hail....

It was werid that fog, I had to put my headlights on to see anything.
But then when I got to the top of croudace bay rd. It was like a summers day

I love this shot http://www.mini2.com/forum/attachment83509.jpg

p.s. Ozzie rules

All my life, I have searched for a car that feels a certain way.
Powerful like a gorilla, yet soft and yielding like a Nerf ball. Now, at last, I have found it

Damn,

Reminds me of some stuff I pass through in a couple of patches coming into Canberra this morning - with a car behind me with two guys wearing dayglo yellow vests - guess who got freaked out .

Did you use your fog lights in the fog?

Well, you need to post them somewhere else first (i.e. the 'Testing' forum is your best bet ) and then link them from there to your chosen thread.

How?

New "feature" and quick tip on image attachments

You can either put them in your gallery if you are a privilege member, or you can link them from an outside source. Alternatively, you can link them from another part of mini2 .

I cant find the link, but there is a help guide on here... It is a feature of this site

Scotty is an expert.
