Pictures of the Familiar

Have you ever seen a picture done by a professional, and it looks like a place that you have actually been? Or better yet, it looks like it was taken at your own house? I have and it blew my mind...it was like I was at my own house...I could imagine where I was standing and which direction I was looking. Granted the picture is very picturesque in that there is a heavy fog, and it just looks really cool. The fog makes it easier to visualize that its actually at my house because the it allows things to be covered up so that things at my house in the backgrounds wouldn't actually show up. I will be taking a picture of this picture, hope the quality works out...and then stand in the same place at my house that it resembles...just wish I could get some heavy fog!
