I'm so glad someone made a video like this.  He explains it waaaay better than I ever could ;_;

Photoshop program, but you can modify it to make it work for even freeware like GIMP.  Perhaps I can help, or someone else more savvy can in the comments below if you're stuck.  :D :D

PS:  Forgive my recent absences here ;_;

Thank you Howard Pinsky :D
This is highly unexperimented with on my end, so this may only work in some instances.
Example:
Before - [link]
After - [link]

DO THIS LAST, AFTER you finish your manip/editing!



Flatten everything and duplicate it.

On the top, duplicated layer:  Filter > Blur > Surface Blur

:bulletblack:Radius:  I usually leave this at 100, but please, experiment first for best results.  The higher, the better, I think, because when it's left low, it's so weak that it's used by some to smooth out skin in their photos.
:bulletblack:Threshold:  This one I leave at 50 - 70 levels.  This controls how much fog there is and the thickness of it.

At this point, it's up to you.  Play with opacity and maybe even greyscale the duplicated, blurred layer when lowering the opacity.

Now, if any of you keep submitting your render > clouds fog, I'll cut you.

:P  Teasing.

If nothing else, here is another way to add the thick kind of fog:  [link]

My jaw hit the desk when I saw this, tbh XD
