Photographer’s Note

Another shot of one of the dryland lakes up in the Knutsford Country near Kamloops. I guess as summer progresses, the water recedes, revealing these wonderful cracks in the mud. That late afternoon was one of those wonderful days.....blue sky, windy, with storm clouds. It meant I had to shoot at a faster speed because of the wind, but I got this great storm cloud.

Bonsoir Steve,
Ce paysage est superbe, les couleurs et la lumière ainsi que la courbe de la rive sont très agréables à contempler.Le détail de la terre sèche est bien fait.

Hi Steve,
Nice lake well taken with this angle close to the ground, good effect with this impressive dry foreground, nice light and colours on all your shot until this sky.

HI Steve,
Nice capture here although it bothers me too that unless one has the polarizer turned just right, it darkens a blob in the center as it did here. Good colors thought and great details and textures. TFS. Gerald
