Lake Maurepas is the westernmost of a chain of lakes that connect south Louisiana to the Gulf of Mexico. During the War of 1812 between the new United States and the British Empire this tiny lake had strategic importance, because if the British could get a fleet west of New Orleans they could cut the Mississippi River and starve the new nation. This spot is at the end of the lake, and the setting sun lighted a small point of land where the young American Navy had a small fleet of gunboats to protect its western flank. **

"A piece of toast with butter always lands butter side down, and a cat always lands on its feet. What happens if a piece of toast is tied butter side down to the back of a cat? Does it perpetually hover above the ground in indecision when dropped?"
Picture perfect 10. Narrative was cream on the pudding.

without a sense of humor, I'd have no sense at all.
What a super image! You captured it all, excellent composition, color, and depth. Hope all of your marks are high. :o)

Photography is not a trade - it is an art. It is more that an art.
It is a solar phenomenon,
where the artist collaborates with the sun.

Excellent picture! I like the colors and the soft nightfall mood... Well done, Regmar!

I'm really into goth rock and new wave. My favorite band is The Birthday Massacre. The guy in my avatar is, in fact, a guy. His name is Mana from the band Malice Mizer.
Excellent shot Reg. I would be inclined to flip it to use the darkness of the trees for my icons. Well done.

You really have an excellent way of setting the mood with the lighting. Wonderful shot, Regmar.

But words are things, and a small drop of ink, falling, like dew, upon a thought produces that which makes thousands, perhaps millions think and smile.
Art is everywhere, except it has to pass through a creative mind.
I can almost hear the bullfrogs and crickets. I really like these twilight shots, give it a very peaceful feeling.Thanks for the piece of history too. Cheers, Al.

" The best way to predict the future is to invent it."
This is one of those images that makes you feel part of the landscape (or waterscape). I can just imagine the warmth, humidity and buzzing insects. Lighting, composition and DOF all work well together and give it a real immediacy.

Another favorite for me, but then there are so many great ones that it is hard to choose the one I like the best.
The colors are great and I love the overall feel of the image.
