Evening on the lake (photo heavy)
Camera: K-30 Photo Location: WV 
Posted By: TonyTurley, 03-18-2014, 07:55 AM

Some evening and night pics from our stay at Stonewall Jackson Resort in northern WV over the weekend. The lake was somewhat turbid, but it was still quite nice. Day 1 was beautiful; the weather turned sour Day 2. Some taken with the 55-300 WR, others with the Vivitar Series 1 19-35. Unfortunately, I used a shutter speed that was a bit too long on the photo showing Orion; I ended up with little star trails. The others were better.
