Lake Susan Sunset
by Helen Betts

Black Mountain, North Carolina

We stumbled across this gem of a lake on the grounds of some retreat at the very far end of town. I had taken a few pictures that included the charming building on the other side of the bridge, but the swan (who you can barely see by the shore) was making waves (literally) at that point and was ruining the reflection. Then it had a face-off with my dog http://www.pbase.com/helenpb/image/86010984 and we decided it was time to leave ;-).

Gorgeous. Helen. I see the swan and am picturing Tilki wanting to go after it. I really like the composition.

Helen - a beautiful Calendar Shot! Looks so peaceful. I'd love to go camping and hiking here.

Serene and relaxing place to be... The lake was so calm...
