Lake in the winter

We haven't seen our boat for quite a while now (since the Fall) so one afternoon without much planning we decided to head to the boat and check things out. Because i have recently purchased a new lens, I had a great opportunity to check it out. I love it! It's the 135mm 2.0 telephoto lens and it rocks! I am a definite prime lens girl. I even sold my only one zoom lens so that i could buy this one. The photos turned out great. Kids had so much fun just playing at the beach and Noah had a chance to burn some of his energy by running around with the dogs. It also helped that we were there during this incredible sunset. I have never seen a sky as beautiful as the one we've experienced right in front of us. It had many different colors and it kept changing as we walked on the beach. What an incredible view! I wish i was better at photographing the sky. This is something that i definitely need to work on. This post calls for this quote:

“I believe that if one always looked at the skies, one would end up with wings.”
~Gustave Flaubert


This is how the sky looked like :)By the way, I submitted this one to a project 52. This one was titled: "Negative Space"
