This is my favorite lake to shoot. It is about 1 mile to the far side, and the sun sets there. This makes it excellent for getting wide or telephoto shots. The cattails are a little soft because of the slight movement in the breeze. The spot at the top is Venus, and there is a gator floating in the water in the center. This was shot the same night as the "Evening Star" image.
Thank you everyone for the votes and comments.
