"Lake Estes Sunset"

Estes Park, CO

Beautiful Lake Estes sits just to the East of the small town of Estes Park.  In the Fall, elk and yellow aspin trees create amazing scenery.  I captured this image in early July as a small storm was clearing the area.  I used a very long exposure, which created the smooth water.

Technical Details: Shot with Canon 30D and Canon 10-22mm lens at F10 and 1/6.  Panorama created from 10 vertical bracketted shots.

Sunshine peeks through to illuminate the Stanley Hotel and reflect off of Lake Estes on Wednesday morning. Rain and small hail returned to the area later in the afternoon.
