Tahoe-sunrise

November 25th, 2012 - Had only a morning at Lake Tahoe. I sincerely hoped for some clouds that could blaze the sky red !!. At about 5:50 AM peeked out of window. First glimpse of dawn! No colors as yet but the pattern of clouds told me that early risers would be treated with love!! Had my gear ready the night before. It was very cold outside, about -5 degrees Celsius. Packed myself and hurried to the shore. Had the whole beach to myself. My only companions were some ducks who began their day early. The initial pink streaks turned to deep red just before sunrise! I set my tripod at one location and took the pictures once a while, careful to enjoy photography as well as the vistas, not letting the former overshadow the experience of latter.

  • This cute little duck begins her day at the break of dawn. I had the Tahoe lake shore to myself with my only companion, ducks!! Below freezing temperature and complete silence interrupted by quacking :-) The sunrise colors are real. One of the most beautiful sunrise I have seen.

  • Right before the sunrise when the color changes to deep red!! The time and the mood demanded shots with low shutter speed. However that blurred some of the ducks. I was worried that the ducks would become a spoiler. This one surprisingly came out well !
