Emerald Bay Moonrise...
I had the opportunity to photograph the full moon rising over Emerald Bay (Lake Tahoe) this last weekend. The earth's shadow cast some wonderful color just after sunset.

Unfortunately, controlled burns in the area are producing quite a bit of smoke which really adds a haze layer over the lake.

Canon EOS 20D, F/11, 1/6 Sec, 17mm, ISO 100

Enjoy...

Bill

The pink sky and pink reflection are really nice.

Hi Bill, this place is on my 'hit list'. Love the pink sky.

Better than usual earth shadow color which is more common at this time of year as storms clear the air frequently. The moon reflection is almost too low as the earth shadow peak pink was a bit later than optimal versus moonrise. ...David
