After heavy rains in the area I hoped for more water coming over the wall but nope. Anyway I decided to try and be different, not shoot the same scene as everyone else. Here it is!!!
This is another shot from my go to location after work. This location can have some magical sunsets to offer. There are also plenty of walking trails including one that loops around the lake. The lake office also offers boats and canoes for rent. #sunset #goldenhour #colorful #waterlust #hiking #bestof5 #LoveMyTown
