Pokey Lake Sunset 1

Gallery: LandscapePosted February 27, 2012163 views5 comments
The sun sets over a partially frozen Pocomoonshine Lake in January in Downeast Maine.
Canon 5DII, EF17-40 @ 17mm, 1/80sec f11, ISO 100. 3 image pano.
My favorite hiking areas don't have any snow this year, but we've been having some pretty cool clouds so I've been taking a lot of sunrise & sunset photos.

Would love to see a larger version of this. I like how the clouds fill the frame and the shiny surfaces in the foreground but details hard to make out at this size in pano format.

Very cool looking, Bill. Great clouds and I really like the blue and reflections.

Another amazing sky! That "V" on the bottom makes me wonder what's just outside of the frame.

Wonderful sunset pano and what a terrific sky. I'm kinda wishing there was more symmetry and I'm unsure about the trees on the left. But who's complaining? You included enough of the trees to be obvious you wanted them included and really the sky and sunset kinda dictated the framing anyway. The only small nit/suggestion would be to address the slight haloing in those trees. With such pretty blue in the sky it's easier to pick up. Otherwise, very nice.
