I’ve heard fog referred to as “pea soup,” which aptly describes a yellowish fog. But that fog is typically not our fog. Ours is more a “15-bean” deal, misty and grey, but no less thick.

Fog is not an all-the-time deal around here, but I’m always intrigued by it when it befalls my fair city, especially from a photographic point of view. But by its very nature, fog is a muter, a dimmer of the lights, which of course is kind of anti in capturing things with a lens. Unless you’ve got a light source to cut through all those 15 beans.

Driving home the other night, I encountered the men and women of UP Lacrosse holding practice beneath the stadium lights, the exact sort of shine I’d been hoping for these last few foggy days.

I liked these few shots.
