Lungersee Sunrise [Contest Finalists January 2010]
Uploaded: January 05, 2010 11:17:38
A view of Diesselbach and Lungern along the shore of the small natural lake; Lungersee. I took this photo at about 6:30 from the Brunig Pass. I was on my way to Melchsee-Frutt for a morning hike and had to turn around and go back for this capture. Too lazy to pull out my tripod…I placed the camera on a fence post and used a small rock to level the camera. This was taken with my Canon 24-105 lens with an 81C filter to cut the blue. ( ISO 200, 28mm, f/11)

Breathtaking Les! Congrats on your purple win at 101. I LOVE your landscapes! #8321440Bunny Snow February 01, 2010
I love the color and tonality of the light you captured, Les. It reminds me of the beautiful sunrises I encountered in the Colorado Rockies when we hiked the Mt. of the Holy Cross one morning in the early 1960's.Your is a beautiful image, and very well done.
I also love your landscapes.
