Foggy Morning

eoren1

We were treated to two mornings with dense fog so I tried to make the most of it. I'm grappling with how best to process these shots and would greatly appreciate any advice. All were shot with +1 exposure compensation in raw format and taken into Lightroom.
For most, I boosted the blacks to 10, increased the clarity to about 15-20, vibrance to 8 or so and saturation about 4. Some had a slight boost to the highlights contrast or a decrease in the darks. All then got a bit of sharpening added.
Thanks in advance,
E

I like 3,4 and 6. Six is my favorite, though. Can't offer any advice on PP - I'm a rank amateur, sorry.

Ever been to top of that lighthouse? One of the best views around! I was a lighthouse tech in the Coast Guard in Boston and have seen the vistas from all of them on the Mass coast. That one's pretty close to the best.

Thanks for the comments and the suggestion!
I haven't figured out yet how to get up there but will post some shots as soon as I do.

I like 'em all, but 4 and 6, mostly. 6, mostliest.

Any better in B/W?
Starting to think that maybe that is a better choice for these foggy scenes. Tried to play with the curves as well.

Sorry - I accidentally posted these here rather than in the Technique forum. I moved these there as I'm still struggling with the post processing of these shots.
