From photographer Dave Hoffman: This photo depicts a beautiful sunset on Iona Lake in Franklinville, New Jersey. The temperature was in the low 30′s and the wind was coming off the lake when it was taken. Southern New Jersey offers some beautiful landscapes. Franklin Twp is located about 45 minutes from Philadelphia and offers some very rural areas that are wide open and perfect for great landscape photography. The sun setting over the moving water provided a perfect opportunity to use a CPL and a 10-stop ND filter. You can see more of my images at www.davehoffmanphotography.com.

Camera: Canon EOS 7D
Lens: Tamron 17-50mm
Focal length: 17mm
Exposure time: 8 seconds
