For a photographer, fog evens everything out. The land and the sky become an even exposure. Sometimes when I’m shooting and it’s not foggy, one part of the shot will go bright white to get the detail of another part, but with fog you’re not blowing out any parts of the composition — the sky is as important as the land. Fog also provides a sort of filter, like rubbing Vaseline over your lens. It makes everything look good.
