Thanks, Chinook. The really odd thing is that I was there on Memorial Day just before sunrise, and I was the only person at the lake. That was unexpected. Being woken up in the middle of the night by a critter chewing on my car, however, was not. I knew I should have bought those moth balls.

Sunset from the summit of San Luis Peak. Chaos Penumbra snapped the shot w/ his camera and I did some editing.

Love all these photos - I wish I was more of a morning person, but I never seem to be up for sunrise!

A few of my favorites:
