Reflections of Turquoise Green Waters (North Cascades National Park Service Complex)

A roadside stop along the North Cascades Scenic Highway. What caught my attention with this setting was the so calm waters of Gorge Lake that early morning. With the added look of the reflections of the hillside of evergreens, it was definitely a sight to take in! Composing the image was a matter of lining up the far-off hillside to complement the lake waters, even including a little bit of the nearby shoreline. I then worked the shutter speed in Manual mode to get that just right exposure I could later work with in Capture NX2 for the final image.
