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.Davis Lake Photo by Here I Am/Carrie

At home due to the narrow valley I rarely get to enjoy sunsets like this out in the open.Davis Lake Photo by Here I Am/Carrie

The geese always present at this lake and unlike our geese near our home  were very use to people so I could get close.Davis Lake Photo by Here I Am/Carrie

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.Davis Lake Photo by Here I Am/Carrie

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.Davis Lake Photo by Here I Am/Carrie
The next day ventured back to the rope swing where others were hanging around as well.  Davis Lake Photo by Here I Am/Carrie
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.  Davis Lake Photo by Here I Am/Carrie

Forever enjoying those reflections on the lake.Davis Lake Photo by Here I Am/Carrie

I just love capturing with my camera those silhouettes gliding across the sparkles of the lake.  Davis Lake Photo by Here I Am/Carrie

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.Davis Lake Photo by Here I Am/Carrie

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.Davis Lake Photo by Here I Am/Carrie
