Lake Tomahawk has water in it once again! No ducks or geese at this point. Maybe they've found new nesting sites.
A rather strange 3 second exposure on the phone of the Pink Moon...which is just the glow in the sky. I'm losing my views to the ever present leaves that are popping out all over. Perhaps in a few hours I might see it better where the leaves aren't as advanced.
Today's quote:
Don’t speak unless you can improve on the silence.
Since you, like me, may not often return to read replies to comments, this is mine. Speaking of the reflection: "that's a result of the wonky angle that I was shooting from. I am thinking of doing more photoshopping to align them." I now add, even if it is not what I saw. I did embiggen the moon a bit in that photo, but it is what I think I saw as opposed to what the camera saw. Finding the perfect location is quite problematic. One does what what can.
You hit the nail on the head...I would maybe look at your reply to my comment on the next day when commenting on that post. Thanks so much for explaining what happened. Yes, I have also got limited places to take photos from...so I understand that problem. I do love embiggening, and can't wait till I can use it in conversation.
Barbara, They had to drain one of our nearby TVA lakes a couple of years ago to repair the dam. It looked otherworldly when it was mostly empty...a couple of bridges that were normally under water along with roadbeds and a couple of ruins. I'm glad that you have your lake back. Nice setting too! My wife took photos of the 'pink' super moon last night too. Stay Safe and Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
This was almost total darkness, but the long exposure captured what light there was...including making the moon glow just a big glow! I don't know how to turn off that feature.
Love today's proverb..yes and amen. Gorgeous lake and views. Coming here from Thankful Thursday. Good Stuff!! Sue of photowannabe https://allredmop.blogspot.com
...it's nice to see the construction complete.
ReplyDeleteI didn't go find out what they were doing (improving?) this time.
DeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteThe lake is look beautiful, I am sure the ducks and geese will return! The trees blocked my view of the moon this morning. Have a happy day!
yes, good old mountain water is clean and they will probably put fish in it again soon.
DeletePink moon? That must have been neat to see.
ReplyDeleteIt was a nice full moon, and not pink of course!
DeleteOur pond is devoid of fowl these days. They must be nesting i more obscure places.
ReplyDeleteOh my, I hope you see some baby fowl sometime soon.

DeleteNice moonlight there. We got to see it rise here. It wasn't pink, but it was big!
ReplyDeleteI've wondered about that name...it was pretty though.
DeleteThe lake looks peaceful.
ReplyDeleteI get that kind of feeling near almost all water.

ReplyDeleteThanks for your info on draining a TVA lake. I've seen a few of them, and never the flooded villages or road that lie beneath them.
DeleteI got a similar photo of the pink moon, except at night. There are too many trees around here!

DeleteThat's great to see the lake once again. Now you need to get the wildlife back.
ReplyDeleteI think it's a build it they will come thing.
DeleteAbsolutely, yes, walking aeound a lake is one of life's pleasures.
ReplyDeleteLove today's proverb..yes and amen. Gorgeous lake and views.
ReplyDeleteComing here from Thankful Thursday.
