Melbourne is a very quiet city, even when the business district is bustling. But when it's foggy like this, it's almost as if the dampness cloaks the sounds of everyday life. As you can see, it was a really foggy morning today. I like this shot because the only real colour is the red on the sign and the light, rendered amber by the fog and reflected in the surface of the Yarra River.

That's a shot you can feel...I love it and wish I could stand just there and listen and smell for some time. Maybe one day.
Thanks, Mushy,
You just echoed my own sentiments. I could have stood there and just breathed it all in for several more minutes.
Keep smiling

As in the Palm Pilot shot, the red colour really stands out so delicately against the unembellished setting.
Penguins only??? What the?
Very atmospheric. In Venice, the fog (perhaps it was a thick mist) came down, and we got hopelessly lost - the echoes bounced across the water, it was both eerie and magical at the same time. I'll never forget it.
Great photo. I love the fog.
A very well captured shot!
