entry description
Lake George, a gem nestled at the foot of the Adirondack Park, is a special place. Having grown up in the area, it has remained my favorite place to be. I often take in this view, typically at sunrise, looking north from the village. I arrive before the first light and set up. The summer sky lights up after sunrise in vivid pink, a sharp contrast to the mountain silhouette and the blue hour palette. To create a dreamlike scene with a sense of movement, I opt for a long exposure. My aim is to capture the serenity and beauty of this magical place.about the photographer
