Description
Another shot of Donner Lake in Truckee, one of my most favorite places. My son lived here for several years, but just moved. I'll miss this view, but am happy he's bought his own house. He's about 40 minutes from here now, so it's not an impossible trip.

One of my favorite places out here too. I've never been ale to see it like you have though. Gorgeous shot and the light was perfect.
Beautiful! Your composition is just right. A gorgeous place, and a fantastic photograph!
Very beautiful view.... Aloha
So still and calm, real beauty.
That does look early! Nice view!
I agree with Tara. This composition rocks: there's this thing you've got going with the mountains and their reflections and it creates an unexpected symmetry, but that symmetry is NOT symmetrical in terms of the rest of the photograph: I mean it is, but you have to look at the rest of the photograph and see that echo of the mountains followed in the line of the darkened shore. That way, you've light doing the whole light thing and going this-a-way, and then you have the shadows doing the shadow-thing and going thataway, but they fit together because there's a nice balance between the thisaway bits and the thataway bits, and that is where the lake is, which is--of course--a perfect reflector for the sky and so you have still more thisaway and thataway excitement going on. This is such a still photograph, but it's so exciting; there's some really interesting composition business running around in this picture, kinda like a really, really, really interesting baseline in a cool song. I like this!
a wonderful sweeping scape
So very lovely! And good for your son...
so lovely
Very Beautiful, Great scenery
