Nancy & I were dashing off to find Lime Kiln Park on San Juan Island for a sunset shoot and made a really wrong turn and ended up at English Camp for sunset. Not the scene we had expected but I think this image proves that under the right light good things can happen.

A 13x19 print of this reveals the Canadian Geese and two Deer in the background. This JPEG kinda loses them.

An unexpected treat once I got this into Adobe Lightroom is the reflection of the tree in the window of the house.

So lemme know what yall think of this one please.

I really like it...very simple and calm....

if there were a way to do it...I would love to see the building on the left and the tree on the right.....but nevertheless...a nice photo

A very nice scene. I think the large print would be nice with the geese and deer a little more evident.
