Lake Nokomis
A couple of months ago I was supposed to go and listen to an up and coming singer in downtown Minneapolis, but plans fell through. Since I was sitting at work, in Bloomington, waiting for plans to form, I was close to Lake Nokomis. After I realized that I wasn't going to be getting a call from the friend I was supposed to see the show with, I left work to find myself upon the beginnings of a beautiful sunset. I cruised up to Lake Nokomis, set up the tripod, and snapped a few photos. It was definitely one of those situations where, "when one door of opportunity closes, another door opens." I ended up with a couple of nice shots that I've been planning to post for months.

Nice man, I absolutely love shots like these. Such a wash of different colors. Beautiful!

That is AWESOME. Did you tweak the pic at all?

Yeah, I always use IrfanView to fix (make more realistic) the contrast and saturation cuz my camera "washes out" the color. On this particular photo, I also had to remove a few dust specs - damn dirty sensor.
