About the shot


Saint Sulpice at 6 am

On the Lake Leman you will find many spots heading west. Just right for a morning shot.

First time shooting in Bulb shutter setting. basically I tried 140 second exposure to capture the clouds movements. It was a very windy morning. I tried different shots from the shore with trees and flags but it was useless. Too blurry. I was hopping for a clear horizon, but here again the horizon was cloudy but there was a big opening that allowed sufficient light.



About the story


Lakes

Water, oceans, seas and lakes.
Having the opportunity to live in the Leman area, it is a pleasure to visit, swim and paddle on it.

Switzerland count thousands of lakes and as many explorations and adventures. You have the big lakes such as the Leman, lake of Neuchatel or the one in Zurich or Interlaken.

Other lake and maybe the most mysterious ones, are the smaller mountain lakes. Some of them have incredibly bluish color. Other are darker.

Finally, there are the artificial lake, created by dams. These as well can be impressive specially because they are high in the mountains.

It is a pleasure to look on the map and then to go and discover the place.
