I spotted morning fog and made a beeline for Ryker Lake in Sparta prior to other business in Sussex County NJ. The area is part of Sparta Mountain WMA and can be good for photographing wildlife as well as landscapes.

Here is a behind the scenes look at setting up a landscape shot.  My camera setup is the Canon EOS M50 digital mirrorless camera and the Sigma 17-50mm lens.
