Foggy Days

Part 6

 by Takeshi Yamada

 There are not many foggy days here in Coney Island but when it happens, it completely transforms this beach into a world of another mysterious dimension and time. Coney Island Beach on foggy days is like a daydream and old European pastel tone romance movie. It may be hard to believe for you but shown below are photographs of the prime location of the New York City during the summer season.

 

August 24 (Friday), 2007. Foggy in the early morning. 75-63F degree. The sunrise beach walking was sublime.
