I often wander around outdoors whenever heavy clouds cling to the mountain, always in search of a priceless view like this one that I encountered along a road through a Eucalyptus grove.  The fog is not only useful for enhancing the sense of depth in the scene, but also provides an otherworldly quality, a subtle beauty and mystery that would be entirely lacking in a more conventional atmosphere.
