Looking across Mason Lake in the Adirondacks of NY, just before sun set. had to scale down cliff and wade across shore line to get to vantage point, hence did not bring tripod.

D5000, f/22, 1/20, 18-105 mm VR @ 18 mm, Hand Held.

Comments appreciated.

Greg,

Pretty clear from your comp that you were attracted to the nicely lit grasses and leaves that look like they are still growing out of these fallen limbs. The back lighting is nice and I like the color and ripples in the surrounding water.

the upper part and sky are much less interesting to me, but it certainly works for showing the location. Although it might not seem like much, I think a crop of 1/2 the sky would help to emphasize the stuff going on in the foreground.

Very nice foreground, Greg. Wish the sky had some clouds.
