When Smog Swallows the Afternoon Sun

Forest fires again occur in Indonesia. Fires that occurred in the forests of Sumatra and Kalimantan allegedly committed by certain people. One effect that emerged, the smog blanketed several provinces in Indonesia such as where I live, Aceh. This smoke even reached neighboring countries such as Singapore and Malaysia.

The impact of the haze, can be seen in the photography I took at sea Lingka Kuta, Aceh, Indonesia.

Seen a group of local young people playing soccer on the beach, Lingka Kuta. In the sky, fog was visible and covered my camera lens when I took an object from the afternoon sun.

Another example can be seen in the picture below that a very thick fog enveloped even though the afternoon sun still shone brightly in the sky. I tried adjusting my camera settings, but only the sun's bias was reflected in the sand and sea water. The sun remains hidden in the fog.

This is a natural phenomenon that is happening now with two photographs to state the evidence. This is an extraordinary moment in my observation.
