Silhouettes in the Fog

Today we had a heavy fog over the higher hills around where I live, so I took off in the rain and fog, could only see about two feet ahead of my car, and got some pretty good silhouette photos in that fog. Of course, all the little 'speckles' you see is truly the fog. I decided on posting this photo for the current Silhouette Contest.

Good contest entry X. If it doesn't do good then the voters don't have the foggiest. :)

Oooh... the fog makes this really, really eerie! I like it! Those leaveless trees really add to the whole 'eerieness' factor.

It is known that there is an infinite number of worlds, simply because there is an infinite amount of space for them to be in. However, not every one of them is inhabited. Therefore, there must be a finite number of inhabited worlds. Any finite number divided by infinity is as near to nothing as makes no odds, so the average population of all the planets in the universe can be said to be zero. From this it follows that the population of the universe is also zero, and that any people you may meet from time to time are merely the product of a deranged imagination.

That looks like the kind of fog you could get lost in. This is a gorgeous silhouette shot, Verena. I bet I know what happened to your first entry. Too bad. Good luck with this one, though. It's a dandy.
