Fog shut down the city of Wuhan yesterday morning. Expressways connecting the city to the outside world were shut down, some for as long as nine hours.

Yesterday's fog was the heaviest out of three days' worth of misty mornings and created some stunning cityscapes that were captured by Wuhan Evening News photographers.

Here's a selection, beginning with a front-page photo that resembles a traditional landscape painting:

The Changjiang Daily, a sister paper to the Wuhan Evening News, published its own gallery of images. Here's the unearthly photo that ran on the front page:
