Damn it Josh, I'm going to have to get myself over to your neck of the woods and have you show me the sights.

This one does look a little underexposed though.

Right on Gary, right now I'm over in eastern Nevada, and that's where this was taken... come on over

. I hemmed and hawed over the exposure while processing, and guess it's a touch dark eh? It was fairly dim at the time, so I think it looks about right to me, but I'll play with lightening it a bit.

edit: I've tweaked the curves adjustments to lighten the shadows somewhat - hopefully that's better...

That's a long commute. I guess you don't get much traffic in fron of you though.

Yeah - it's probably only twice the drive time it would take me to get to Half Moon Bay, but it's a helluva lot farther. Actually though, I usually fly on an airline to Las Vegas and drive from there.

Very well done, Josh. A terrific example of capturing a reflection.

Verey serene scene Josh - maybe a little dark but beautiful none the less.

Thanks Ray - I've uploaded the lighter version to smugmug, but for some reason the site is still serving the darker version - glad you like it
