Sunset

It was around 9:30 when I noticed the sun was going down.  I wanted to get some pictures at the lake, so I grabbed my tripod and Todd and we walked down together.  It was quiet.  No one was on the lake that we could see, although one boat came back to shore while I was shooting.

I learned that for good sunset pictures, it helps if there are clouds.  Many more clouds than these few puny ones we had.  But this was good practice for setting up my tripod and slowing down the shutter speed to almost half a minute for some exposures.

I had wanted to get up before dawn to take pictures at the lake as the sun is rising, but this morning I realized that my body is truly in vacation mode and incapable of being happily awake before dawn.  So I'll try to catch some more sunsets on our four remaining days Up North.
