Taken one very foggy afternoon last month. Two different compositions.

+1.

I often like symmetry, but the first one is much more dynamic.

Great example how a title helps the picture. Had you not mentioned it (the fog) I'd thought it is a glare from the blown sky  ;) Perhaps a color version would be more indicative of the soft contrast fog typically creates?

Both are good. However, the fog of the second superimposed on the first composition would make for a very strong image.

Yes, good composition.

Thanks for the feedback. The fog was not very intense, but enough to occlude the sun. And it was changing very fast, the wind was strong.

@Slobodan: I will look again at the colour version, but it was rather dull. The contrast, in spite of the fog, was high, as I was shooting into the late afternoon sun.
