Super Nova

Another inroad to a better Bear Lake relationship. I was thinking that if I took her picture in the dark that maybe she wouldn't mind as much.

 

This was night/outing 1 of 2 on the east shore of Bear Lake. (See the map.) All was quiet. This small pier was glowing in the moonlight and I felt like I was the only person who had ever visited this place this late. That feeling didn't last long. Seriously...I was in the middle of nowhere and a guy pulled up with an empty trailer and backed down into the lake, right next to me. So much for my peacefulness. He asked me if I'd seen two waverunners go by. At this point I could vaguely see my camera. Apparently his wife and daughter were still out on the lake somewhere. He waited and we chatted for about 15 minutes until they floated in. It would have freaked me out to be out on that lake in total darkness. Have these people not heard of the Bear Lake Monster? I think her name is Belly.

 

This is a single 30 second exposure. For those of you keeping track, settings were f/4.0, ISO 200 at 10 mm. Time was 9:40 PM.
