Picture of the day - July 10, 2007

A colorful sunset on Lake Washington

Photo courtesy of Winston Rockwell. Photographer Winston Rockwell has captured some of the most beautiful images ever featured as "Pictures of the Day", and today's photo of a spectacular Lake Washington sunset in all its colorful glory certainly falls into that category! Washington state's second largest natural lake, Lake Washington offers scenery that is so magnificent that it has enticed some of the world's wealthiest people to make their homes along her shore. Washington certainly has plenty of natural beauty to offer her residents and visitors, and the Lake Washington area is most definitely among the cream of the crop. Here are a few words from Mr. Rockwell about the image: I took this shot from a city park in Kirkland, looking west across Lake Washington. There really isn't much of a story to the photo... I just really liked the color of the sky and the way the sun outlines the cloud. Taken with my Panasonic FZ20 at about 280mm, 1/500 @ f5.2.
