Hazy shade of winter indeed

This morning I work up at 8:30 a.m. to the honking -- not of geese or car horns -- but of fog horns -- slow, sonorous sounds; prehistoric; soothing... When I woke up again two hours later the fog horns were still sounding off. Too many just for False Creek I thought. Given the way fog can work on sound I might have been hearing horns from as far away as the Burrard Inlet on the north side of downtown Vancouver.

Fog makes anything look like a German silent film

Last night the fog really helped make this cul-de-sac between West Broadway and 8th Avenue look very expressionistic, like something out of the 1927 German silent film masterpiece Metropolis. At least something out in the suburbs of Joh Fredersen's mega city. Click the images to enlarge them.
