This Morning at Donner Lake in Truckee, California

Before heading out to a Real Estate photoshoot today, I walked across the street to Donner Lake and snapped this quick photo. It's so nice living across the street from this scene. I can look out my window, see that it looks good, and 60 seconds later I am at the lake's shore taking photos. Yes, I know I'm very lucky!

If you're curious about the Real Estate shoot... Here's the Virtual Tour. Shooting properties for sale and for rent is my "bread and butter". Those jobs keep me busy and fed. But taking photos like the one below and selling big prints makes me most happy!

Shot with a Canon 5DS R and a 24-105mm lens. The ISO was 200, the lens aperture was f/14, and it was 1/200 of a second exposure. Shot handheld with no lens filters.

Yup, scenes like these make me happy! I hope you are all having a great day and your life is making you smile.
