Paddling Into the Dawn

We drove by this lake yesterday on our way to our hike hoping to enjoy the hike without other hikers. I saw the beautiful foggy morning and wished I had my camera. So this morning I got up early to see if it would be beautiful today as well and it was. After I shot for a while, these kayakers and their little dog visiting from Colorado took off for a morning paddle. I thought they added nicely to the scene.
Thanks for your visits, comments, suggestions, favs

Definitely could be used in a tourist magazine for the area - wonderful shot. I like where you let the kayakers reach before you shot. Perfect.
