Last night as the sun was setting over Center lake in the town of Warsaw, Indiana. You can see the courthouse across the lake and if you look closely you can see the twisty slide on the beach. I was standing on the deck of a restaurant that has been closed for some time now. After all the pictures I have taken of this lake, and I finally thought to try this spot out for some photo opts.

I used the Sigma 17-70 lens for this shot, and not alot of editing done: resize, and sharpen.

I came across This Video of a place I visited some years ago. The quality is not the best but I thought it would be fun to share this with you. It was a great train ride on that old steam engine going up the mountains along the river. Beautiful country! I did not drive across the bridge - I would have like to!

Thanks for your comments, and have a good day.

I never would have made it in the bridge construction world. I look down too much. LOL. I liked that music in the background of the video. Thanks. super lighting in this pretty shot, Sandi. I also see a Highup Regency Hotel for birds. Did you stick around to get shot of the tenants?

Saw some stopped cars on the bridge. Two possibilities: cars from the workers on te bridge or people who (illegally) stopped to make some captures.
About your image, I like to say that I agree with the avove comments. To me Michel has hit the nail on the head. Wonderful post Sandi. Like it a lot.
Regards, Cornelius.

Love the lighting you got with this shot. I had to smile big when I saw the hotel sytle birdhouse. We had one on the farm.....

Dusk is such a peaceful time ... I do enjoy the lighting here & how you composed this scene. I spotted the birdhouse off to the left ... lovely subtle reflections too. Beautifully captured Sandi. Thanks for the link too.

Wonderful shot Tigz. I especially like the steeples in the background. The water looks smooth as glass. I suspect the Martin's have moved on. Again with the great reflections.
