Tonight's Kings Beach, Lake Tahoe Sunset
The sunsets and sunrises have been incredible up here in the Tahoe area lately!
I had a busy day with the camera. After I shot two real estate photo jobs, I ended up getting dinner at my favorite little Mexican food stands. Their Chimichangas are incredible! After I got my order, I drove across the street to Kings Beach, where there were plenty of unused picnic tables. The clouds were looking like they might make for a nice sunset so I hung out at the beach for an hour and waited.
I'm glad I waited! The sunset was a real stunner. The oranges and reds were intense, and it was one of those sunset where the color stuck around a looong time.
These were both shot with the Canon 5DS R and a 16-35mm lens. No lens filters were used, however, two flash units were used in order to light up those trees and get those fall colors to pop.
Happy photographer, once again. I have been getting a lot of new photos for my website lately, which yes, makes me smile!
Thank you for looking and I hope you all had a great day too!

Nice one, beautiful captures...
Thank you!
So beautiful sunset views. I love it. Thanks for sharing.
Happy to share, glad you loved it!
You caught very spectacular sunset!👍
Indeed! I loved how red it was.
Nice sunset, those flashes worked very good👍
I love lighting up yellow trees in autumn with the flashes. It can be such a great look! Glad you liked it.
Good mexican food is definitely one of the things I miss from Cali. The second photo is my favorite. I like the couple and the swinging arms. You couldn't pose that better lol
I'm originally from LA, so I know good Mexican food and I can be judgmental. Most around here is just okay. But La Mexicana is awesome!
Right!? That couple added a great human element to the shot. It was a good evening for many people out there.
I think most people who take great shots make use of Canon camera
I think it is very good
There's nothing wrong with Nikon or Sony either, but I like the quality you get with Canon for the price. I've always felt Nikon is a bit overpriced for what it is. And I feel like Sony's gear needs to get a bit tougher in order for me to buy it, because I can be abusive to my gear.
Wonderful view. This is a great capture
Thank you! It's a fun view to capture.
I see that you have perfectly met a beautiful sunset. A wonderful end to the day.
It was a perfect one indeed! Both the sunset and the end to the day.
These places are my favorite places and you are very lucky to live on top of such a beautiful place and the scenery we see is so beautiful.
I agree! I absolutely love it up here. It was cold, windy, rainy, and a little snowy today. Not a photogenic day. But most days and scenes here are great for photography!
Yeah you are right.
