Summer Moments Captured at Davis Lake

While camping this summer I enjoyed taking photos of an area different from our ranch.  It’s a more relaxed time where my camera is always ready to capture that special scene.    I also enjoyed hiking, biking and swimming while relaxing on beautiful Davis lake.  Hubby of course was always out on the lake fishing in our canoe giving me many photo opportunities using him.  So please enjoy my special moments captured with my little camera.

I am always drawn to the sparkles on water when the sun is setting and try to include something passing thru it.

Our camp right on the lake.

Enjoying a fire and the full moon rising.

At home due to the narrow valley I rarely get to enjoy sunsets like this out in the open.

Ever present on the lake my hubby.

High mountain lake trout a healthy source of fish.

The geese always present at this lake and unlike our geese near our home  were very use to people so I could get close.

Camping and children just plain go together.

 

One morning I got up early and captured the fog coming off the lake.  Hubby was always the first one out.

A magical moment with the fog, light and geese.

There were many lakes in the area that I explored on my mountain bike.  All alone discovering new beautiful places.

 

One evening while going for a walk I discovered a rope swing off a big old tree.  Ok always drawn to the sparkles.

The next day ventured back to the rope swing where others were hanging around as well. 

Wow did that ever look like fun.  Yes I tried it also twice.  I just had to do it, forget how old, fat and out of shape I was.  I did get full swing out but my shoulders and hands just couldn’t hold on.  No that’s not me in the photo. 

Forever enjoying those reflections on the lake.

Some more birds that let me get reasonable close.

Just another lazy summer day.

I just love capturing with my camera those silhouettes gliding across the sparkles of the lake. 

Always inspired by other photo blogger, even with my little camera I  have tried panning with a moving subject.  So in the late evening light trying to pan with the boat I got this shot that looks very ghostly.

Summer is now long over and I know fall colors are already showing up, but I really wanted to share these special moments and photos from summer.  So as the sun set on this summer evening I bid farewell to summer memories.

May you also see, feel, experience or capture those special moments in your life and also have
a
Good Morning…   Good Afternoon…  Good Night…
Whatever it is to you..
