Default How to photograph in dense fog?
It has been very here for quiet some time. Morning noon & night! So, there is no golden hour lately!
What can I do? Settings?
Thanks!
Debbie

Well, Deb, came by to chat and you had left. The Golden Hour seems to shift week to week. Maybe later this evening . . .

Thanks for replying.
When it is this foggy, and I mean dense low & high fog, there is no golden hour. The sunset is as drab as the day. I went out anyway & took some shots around town & of the water. Going to download them now.
I will post some on Friday (day off)!

Hey Deb, I know what you mean. I am in Northern California as well and haven't seen the sun for a few days. I have pondered that question over myself. It's suppose to be sunny the rest of the week though so we will see!

Set your exposure compensation to +2/3 EV. Might even need to increase by 1 stop (one third more)
