Several of my own favorite photographs are taken in light fog in
London. They are taken with Plus-X Pan and FP4+. That was the time I
was more actively testing films, and one thing I learned was that
films with mild shoulders make best foggy scenes to my taste,
especially when overexposed 1 to 2 stops from incident reading and
slightly overdeveloped. For many other situations I like TMX and
Acros but not for foggy scenes.
