Illustration: On a riverside footpath outside a Japanese town, a dog walker has stopped inside thick morning fog. The nearby dog's face and lead are clear, but the walker's legs soften into the pale moisture beyond it. Farther along, another pedestrian is visible only as a faint upper-body silhouette.
