No it’s not Funky Claude, it’s ChrisM, but I hope some get the reference to the title of the post.

What is coming of the water? I’d just call it water vapor.

Wispy fog like that forms when the air is much colder than the water body it is passing over. It doesn’t take much to saturate cold air, so water evaporating from the river quickly condenses right above the surface, forming the fog. The wind rapidly mixes the fog below with drier air above and the fog evaporates. This type of fog has several names, most commonly steam fog, evaporation fog, or sea smoke. It is funny how once once you’ve taught a subject it all comes back to you in a flash…

I thought I had posted a comment earlier, but it isn’t here, so here goes again:

The photos are fabulous! I’ve never seen anything like that on the river before — looks more like something you’d see out here over the ocean!

you’ve got the bandwidth, the megapixels, and the photos, i was wondering why you didn’t already make the switch.

The larger photos eat into the sidebar on Safari.
