Yes the photo is mysterious unless you happen to be in this smog! Some of the world's largest cities look like this in the morning and as the day progresses it does not disappears. Beautiful to look at in this photo but terrible to breathe.

As an artist, this one touched my heart. I loved the depth captured like the old sepia-toned photographs, and the mystery!

Its like a fantasy world...so surreal yet so peaceful.

What an extraordinary shot. It is amazing that you preserved such exquisite detail throughout the entire depth of field, with the softness of the foggy dawn dictating visual conditions. Kudos. Simply beautiful!

It looks like paper cut-outs, or a stage set. Lovely. The colors and sense of mystery are really captivating.

Perfectly captures that magic few moments before the world awakes....stunning.

Very nice. I entered 6 photographs but did not make the finals. Congratulations
