This was taken about 5:15 p.m. on my way home yesterday – about 8 miles south of Bigfork. Sunset currently is 6:20ish. Funny about that guard rail…there was no turnout on either side of the road. I saw the light on the lake and knew it could vanish at any moment. I got to a stretch of road that was straight enough for long enough that no one would blast around a curve and find me in the way. I stopped in the road, rolled down the window and shot. When I saw the rail in the photos, I first cropped it out, then decided I liked it better in and even with that one scraggly bush.
So…another happy accident – or not. There are times when I feel a nudge to take a photo and this was one and although I have a number of photos and a “story” from yesterday, I could not, NOT post this first thing this morning. And the verse just came or as I believe, was given.
I love the area around Kalispell/Whitefish. Many times, my friend(AZ) and I(CO)have flown into Glacier Airport on our way to Fernie, BC. Your pictures are lovely.
Ann…great site you have here. I’ll be a frequent visitor I suspect. Love the pictures. They are amazing, and you clearly have the eye to capture natures beauty. I enjoyed the series of you trying to capture a picture of you and Karl. Looks like he was having none of it.
That’s the best photo of the lake that I’ve seen in a long time! It’s a perfect winter image.
And such a great caption, too.
Early morning? Or afternoon/evening?
What a beautiful, totally relaxing picture!
Gorgeous scene. I really like how you used the railing in the composition…works beautifully.
That is a beautiful picture of the lake, combined with one of my favorite Bible verses. Thanks for feeding my eyes and my heart today!

True serenity..

Very nice pic Ann and the scripture verse too. See Romans 10:17 Thanks for this post, always enjoyable.
How very beautiful.
Beautiful… and one of my favorite scriptures also.
