Lake Casidy Sunrise Landscape

[Jim Dockery]

I know some of you don't care for figures in a landscape so here is a pure sunrise over Lake Casidy I shot before my wife and I got on our paddle boards, that's Mt. Pilchuck to the right of the sun hiding in the clouds.

I did not mind the figure of your wife in the previous version and it would have been easy to clone her out. But this is still a great image.

Quite a nice sunrise color show and the reflections make this one sing. I like the low mist hanging just above the waterline on the far shore.

Nice clouds to go with the sunrise Jim. Pretty still lake with the reflections.

Thanks guys, as I look through the shots I realize that even though Debbie was going very slow her board and paddling made ripples, so this is the only shot I got with a mirror like refection.

Beautiful scene Jim looks like a great place to do what you are doing.

 

[Jim Sanderson]

That is nice. Wish I were there.

Very cool Jim! I have been in the backcountry so much I don’t recall the one with your wife in it. I have a couple of days to breath, so tomorrow I will see if I can find it.

In general I don’t care for people in my landscapes, in fact when my kids were younger I had to be forced to have them in a composition. But... I usually like your addition of your wife, so I can appreciate it. But I still to this day have to really force myself to include people.

Very nice, Jim. Since I moved to Arizona from the Midwest I don't get to see evaporation fog very often. This image makes me nostalgic for that experience again.
