Fog color is determined by a lookup table based on sun angle.

Scene lighting is also determined by a lookup table based on sun
angle.

If you multiply those, you'll end up with the sun angle being factored
in twice.

Also, if our terrain textures are taken from photos, they will already
have proper sun illumination factored in.

Could you explain what you think is lacking and why you think this
will help?  Maybe I'm missing something?
