Day 26 of 40; Morning at Glen Lake - a photo on Flickriver

            Day 26, part 1
This morning when I awoke everything was covered in frost; my sleeping bag, boots, backpack, the meadow I was camping in, even my water bottles were frozen. As I headed back to Glen Lake (10480) for morning photography I left footprints in the frost that covered the grasses of the meadow. When I arrived at the lake, I found a beautiful rock that had fractured in perfect layers that would make a great foreground. Here I waited for the warmth of morning to grace the saw-toothed ridge that rose above the valley that separated it from the lake. As I waited in the cold air, a slight breeze ruffled the surface of the still lake and sent a shiver down my spine. The sound of trickling water, somewhere off in the distance, was the only sound to be heard. Finally, a ray of light spilled over the ridge to my east and painted the saw-toothed ridge just as I had hoped. Slowly the light flowed down the slopes until it was just perfect for the shot.
