It was another magical sunset at Lake Ontelaunee tonight (7-15-2009). I shot the sunset from water level this time instead of from the dam and I used my Nikon 24-70mm instead of the wider angle Sigma 10-20mm I used in previous Ontelaunee sunset shots. I was lucky enough to have a late day fisherman take his place in the frame within the last few shots.
Single RAW exposure, tripod mounted with Cokin Graduated Sunset-2, Neutral gray and Graduated Tobacco-Grey Pro-Z filters.
Lake Ontelaunee is a 1,082 acre reservoir that provides much of the drinking water for the city of Reading Pennsylvania. It’s a favorite fishing spot year round and is surrounded by state game lands and farms. The lake is formed behind the Ontelaunee Dam and was created in 1926.
