I sat on the opposite side of the lake watching the shoreline come alive in the sunshine. The clouds had lingered throughout the day, but an hour before sunset they parted giving the light a truly golden color. And as the clouds parted, the lake calmed to a sheet of glass; everything on the shoreline was reflected in the mirror-like water. It was a magical few minutes, long enough to absorb the colors of a brilliant fall evening and to wish the season would linger much longer before we head into winter.
Thankfully, your spectacular photograph will allow us to do just that, hold on to the majesty of this magical season. What an experience you had! Thank you for sharing this prize moment with us and for taking the time to capture it on your camera.
Oh fall is way too fleeting! Perhaps that’s why we appreciate it and relish in its beauty so much (or at least I do). The colors are certainly a call to me to stop and admire Mother Nature and the spectacle she provides. Thanks, Rex!
A beautiful moment of reflection.
Thanks, Jim – hopefully the combination of words and image give you a feel of that very special moment.
