A stock photo capturing a calm water surface reflecting morning fog with a distinct purple mist tone. Rocks and seaweed sit in the foreground and along the waterline, adding natural shoreline detail and texture beneath the soft haze. The fog reduces contrast and simplifies the background, while the purple tint remains subtle and atmospheric rather than saturated.
Photographed in Maine, this image documents a real early-morning coastal condition. The scene stays broadly usable as a fog-and-reflection background with gentle color, suitable for professional design that needs quiet atmosphere and natural detail.
The fog-heavy upper area and smooth water reflection create generous copy space, while rocks and seaweed add grounded texture along the lower edge.
✓ Hero backgrounds or section headers needing soft color and open space
✓ Editorial or educational content about coastal fog, tides, or morning conditions
✓ Environmental, travel, or wellness-adjacent design projects using calm water imagery
📍 Tip: Place headlines in the purple mist/fog portion for maximum legibility, and keep smaller text away from the rock and seaweed textures.
