Symphony of Sunset

Gallery: LandscapePosted October 13, 2013488 views19 comments

I went up to Lake Superior with a couple of friends. What always intrigues me is the little waterfall on the Miners beach. It is rather ordinary until the rock underneath the falls is lit up by sunset. This time, we photographed sunset as usual. Just when we were ready to leave. The whole sky and lake turned red. I quickly took a few more shots of my favorite water falls before the light faded away.

Very pretty scene John with nice lines and colors. Very relaxing mood to this. Looks much better on the purchase print link. Well done.

Beautiful light. I like the way the lines in the rock lead the eye into the image and toward the colors in the sky. The waterfall adds nice balance and interest to the image

Thanks, guys. I was experimenting using url link instead of uploading the picture. Don't understand why it is still limited to 640px. I wish I can use a high resolution url. Oh, well, I will still upload next time.

Terrific colors and nice SS.
I might remove the rock in the water if not against your ethics.
I also would love to see a larger version.

Really like the leading lines of the rock and the sunset balances the waterfall perfectly. A real keeper.
