Lake Powell By Day & Night

I just returned from an amazing week with my family in Lake Powell. It's the one week where I get to unplug (well, sorta unplug) and breathe and kill my body with surfing, body surfing, water skiing, wake boarding, water wars and swimming. It's the best. I'll be showing you more, hopefully, but for now, here are a few scenics I took. We had a crazy storm that left the most beautiful light (2nd pic) and the last images are shot in the dead of night where you could barely see any light out. A suuuuuper long exposure lets you see the stars!

    Cool photos! Lake Powell is AMAZING! I think it's my fave vacation spot. I love looking at the stars while sleeping on top of the houseboat...we always manage to see a handful of shooters!

    Thanks, guys! They are all SOOC, except for the 3rd and 4th one --they came out a little too orangey for my taste, so I color corrected it.
