Here is one from Vivek Arcot, who says, "This picture is taken in the San Francisco Bay Area, CA, USA. The great thing about fog in the Bay Area is it never completely receeds or sets in. It keeps rising and falling, which makes for some amazing sights. This is the Bay Bridge (not to be confused with the Golden Gate Bridge). "

And finally, we have this one from Y B D Prakash of Pune, who says, "This was taken at a beach house near Alibagh, 200 kms away from Pune. The specialty about this beach was that the sea had receded by at least by 1.5 kms as compared to the morning, revealing the beautiful rocks underneath."
