Domesticated Spirits

Coming down a foggy mountain road, we reached a sharp turn that dipped below the clouds after a series of switchbacks. As the smooth misty air rolled past, these five large figures appeared out the passenger window, like wild spirits of the mountain pass. Of course, they were not wild at all, but they seemed like a whole other creature from the cattle you first smell then see off the side of the highway in California when driving along the length of the state. When I checked the camera later, one of these shadowy figures seemed to be almost mid flight.
