Colorful sunrise with morning fog
The effect is known as Rayleigh scattering. Blue light has a wavelength of around 400 nano meters, which is more likely than red light (650nm) to be absorbed by particles in the sky and radiated toward the ground, leaving the red light to carry on and hit our retinas.
The water vapour in fog, however, are much too large to scatter individual wavelengths and thus scatter the entire visible spectrum similarly (why fog is usually white, or the colour of the source light).
White light itself is merely a bundle of particles-waves of different wavelengths comprising the visible spectrum.
