Purple Portugal Fog. I took this polaroid in Peniche, Portugal. It was 7 am, 55 degrees and drizzling. I was about to get grouchy about the weather when I saw these figures emerging from the fog. I threw everything I was carrying down and started shooting. It shut my mind up for the rest of the trip. I was in Portugal, surfing and taking pictures. Image: Schwartz
