Though fog is simply mist, it carries a certain mystery. Even when you’ve been to a place dozens of times, something still seems hidden in the fog. It can be bone-chilling or strangely beautiful depending on how you look at it. Check out these shots and decide for yourself – unnerving or magical?
- Davidson Mill Pond Park, New Brunswick
Flickr/Jim Lukach The bare branches appear to be reaching out to something beyond the water.
- Pyramid Mountain, Boonton
Flickr/Garden State Hiker This park is home to strange rock formations making the fog even more mysterious.
- Colonial Park, Millstone
Flickr/Vandan Desal A foggy November morning. The perfect time for a boat ride, or would you rather pass?
- Garrett Mountain, Woodland Park
Flickr/Hope Abrams This lovely swan isn’t afraid of a little mist.
- Roosevelt Park, Edison
Flickr/Jim Lukach The trees appear dead in this dark photo but surely they will be back in the spring.
- Kemah Lake, Hampton
Flickr/takomabibelot The mist descends from the mountain and appears to devour the trees, slowly pulling them back into the lake.
- Garrett Mountain, Woodland Park
Flickr/Hope Abrams Yes, this Paterson area park does have deer. Who would have guessed?
- Cape May Beach, Cape May
Flickr/Bernhard Benke What’s lurking behind the fog? The ocean, of course! It doesn’t seem like an ideal day for swimming though.
- Pier on the Hudson
Flickr/Ryan Vaarsi Stunning city views are made a bit spookier by the fog rolling in.
10, Cheesequake State Park, Matawan
Flickr/Bogumil Cozera Follow the fog into the woods, or keep your distance from the forest like tree standing alone.
- Docks, Bay Head
Flickr/Whitney H It appears that the dock goes on forever but we know that it must end.
- Pier, Ocean City
Flickr/Lizzography This dilapidated pier is already a unique structure, a sign of the devestation caused by Hurricane Sandy. It is made even more intriguing by the surrounding fog banks.
How do you feel about fog after seeing these magical shots? Is it a harmless blanket or a veil hiding secrets? It’s such a natural phenomenon but can seem quite eerie at times. Personally, I love it!
