Timpanogos Reflections

We went down to Utah Lake because the setting sun and clouds looked like they may combine to make a spectacular sunset. The sunset was a bit of a dud, but the lake was smoother then I have ever seen it, and Timpanogos Mountain reflected off its surface beautifully. This is a five shot HDR. To take this type of photo you need to have your camera supported on something solid. In this case I used a tripod. I shot the photo at iso 100 with a full stop between each exposure.

I like the white of the snow and its reflection on the water.
I like the blue of the water and the clouds.
I like the colorful rocks in the foreground they add some contrast to the photo
The rocks also compete with the mountain, so I may want to crop this photo down a little.


Let me know what you think. To see this photo large just click onto the photo.

Recently we have had several Western Tanagers frequenting our local bushes and trees. They are eating the blossoms and small fruit as it is developing. These birds have been skittish and fly away at the slightest movement. This was not the exact look I was after, but it is as good as I could get today. I do like how the the bird is framed by the leaves and the darker shadows. The rain had ended a couple of hours ago. This has been the wettest May on record and this bird was taking advantage of the rare sunshine. The specs for this photo are: Nikon d7000 70-200 mm lens with vibration control on 1.7 teleconverter Handheld f/4.8 ISO 200 focal length 340 with the crop factor it was 510 shutter speed was 1/1250
