I didn't do anything special this weekend so I'll fall back on my old standby, the lake which is up the street from me. I never tire of photographing the lake because depending on the sky, reflections, time of year, and other factors it is ever changing. I'm adding this line after reading early comments. I can't see the lake from my house. It is very close but it is at the end of the road I live off of and is protected by woods. I do walk around it a lot.

I found out today that one of the dragon hunt challengers is starting a new reflection challenge this week. Not sure I'll be able to post every day another week in a row but I do have a lot of reflection shots so it's a natural and fun one for me. As it turns out this photograph has reflections in the lake so it will also be my first reflection post. If you are interested in this challenge you can learn more at Quilly's Pacific Paradise.

WOW! You are so lucky to be living in that area! A lake just across your house? OMG! Nice blue sky too!
Happy Sunday to you;)
Truly lucky to have the lake just across the house! I love the blue sky and the lake waters.
And I thought myself lucky to have a view of the mountains from my bedroom window.
Here's my Weekend Snapshot.
Weekend Breakfast Special
Have a great Sunday!
I just clicked on the photo to enlarge it. What is that in the middle of the water? And what signs are those?
a beautiful picture to cover both prompts! the lake looks like a place to relax...
The lake is very calm and peaceful.
From the other comments I see it is just across from your home. That would be fantastic.
Thanks for visiting. I think I may have been unclear. I can't see the lake from my house. It's the end of the road I live off but is too far to see form my house and is protected by woods. I just walk around it a lot since it's in my neighborhood.
oops, i was logged in as somebody else when i commented... polona's comment is in fact mine
Lovely shot, Carver, I love water reflections.
Exceptionally posting on a Sunday, I found a reflection in my files.
Have a happy day :)
Carver, you were very clear in your post. As I was reading it, we had a power failure and I missed out reading properly. Later, I came back directly keeping in mind that the lake was just across your house, and posted my comment.
Sorry, it was my mistake.
Wow, I wouldn't be tired of snapping that shot either! Lovely clouds!!
I am off to some greenery and altitude! ;-) "c U " in a week!
nice lake and beautiful weather! lovin' the clouds!
I agree with all, that mentioned you're real lucky to live near the lake with such great views :)
Having walks around there must really feel good as well :)
Have a good week ahead Carver :)
And a LOVELY lake it is! I would walk around it a lot if it lived near ME too! :)
The lake is always a pleasure for all of us to visit Carver!
How wonderful to have such a beautiful lake to go to! I can imagine myself sitting next to it, writing my posts. :)
It's good news that the polyps doctor found in you were benign and have been removed. What a relief for you! *hugs*

Sorry I got here so late! What a full day I have had. Phew! I could use some quiet time sitting beside your lovely lake. This is a beautiful photo.
I would love to live near the lake too. I just find it so serene and beautiful. Nice shot :)
what a nice view
Mine is HERE
reminscence of Lake District in England. The other day a group of us were at this quarry lake on an island off singapore (v rare!) and we joked about having a pot of coffee and lying on a hammock to take in the sights and chat. I envy you truly.
Lovely reflection in the lake. I really like reflections in water.
Oh my, so pretty picture! If I live there, I would always drop by that place!

That is a lovely place to walk. You're lucky that you don't need to drive to enjoy it.
That is beautiful view! I would like to live by the lake too if I can.
This is such a wonderful shot! Looks like a really nice place to spend an afternoon :D
Lovely green and blue sky. I have to say I'm very envious of you though, living so close to such a beautiful, peaceful place! :)
Thanks again to everyone for visiting.
