I love foggy photos and these are WAY cool, Pete!

I really like the first one. One small thing though. In the bottom right is a bit of lens flare (I think). That is really easy to remove/reduce in photoshop. I actually like it in some shots, but IMO it is a distraction here.

Good work overall. I'm enjoying all of your shots.

Nice job, Pete. Those shots brought back some memories of San Francisco. I was driving into SF one evening and right at the SF city limit sign, there was a wall of fog very similar to your pics.

Love your fog pictures -- they make me homesick for the north coast around Fort Bragg, CA. I lived there in the early 70s. Seems like there was always a fog going on.
Nice pictures, thanks for sharing.

Thanks all! I too love fog, especially at Bodega Bay, where the finger fogs seem to come and go before you can change a lens. Quite a challenge to shoot.

Yes, I did see that "flare', although it's not really a lens flare but a small remnant of the sun's rays peeking over the top of the fog bank. And yes, it is easily taken out with PS. And no, it did not distract me.

Nice shots Pete,

although I do agree with Caleb. That flare, lens or not (and I do believe it's lens induced) drops the quality of the image.

Sun flare corrected. Hopefully, this composition won't be so awful anymore.

[Robin]

Nothing awful about either one, Pete!

Lovely photos.

Pete,

I hope my comments didn't offend. They are just my oppinions. I really do like that shot. I also think it looks better without the flare.

Believe me, no offense taken at all. No composition is ever perfect, and we can't grow without constructive criticism.

My last statement was purely tongue-in-cheek.
