This was taken on Lake Vermilion in northern Minnesota. Lake Vermilion is 40 miles (67KM) long and has 352 islands. It was named by National Geographic as one of the most 10 beautiful lakes in the US. Vermilion means red for it's red sunsets. I am always looking for the "best". This was taken with a Canon 5D mark lll using Canon 24-70mm f/2.8 ll. 1/1250 at f/7.1 ISO 1000. It was taken on a tripod in a boat. I upped the shutter speed and ISO to compensate for the unstable platform. ( I might have overdone this, but got very little noise). PP was done in Lightroom 4, NIK and CS5. Cloned out some strange looking reflections around a few of the rocks. This is a blend of 3 photos +/- 3 stops. I am trying to climb the steep learning curve on this very enjoyable hobby so any suggestions/thoughts would be most welcome. Thanks for looking.
