The **Atmosphere Render Element** is useful for changing the appearance of the atmosphere and volumetric effects in a rendered image using compositing or image editing software. In the example, fog is generated using the [VRayEnvironmentFog](https://docs-chaos.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/VMAX/pages/113575533). A warmer color is assigned to the fog, and the intensity is increased using the Atmosphere RE.
