Haar

Afternoon temperatures have soared to a dizzy 23C over the last few days but the bright sunshine has been tempered by a persistent haar rolling in off a cool North Sea to wash across the beaches and....

....into the fields that run along the back of them, then filtering through the forestry....

....into fields which rise behind, where thin sunshine struggles to light the oatfields which have recently been harvested, before finally....

....lapping against the higher hills.

The haar persisted last night, swirling beneath the street lights like one of those old London fogs yet, looking up, the stars were brilliantly clear. By this morning the sun shone brightly, glittering off the haar's legacy - a heavy, autumnal dew.
