Inspiring Photo: Gone Fishing #14942500

Gone Fishing

Uploaded: July 19, 2015 | Entered: July 19, 2015 03:37:18

Description

This view is towards the motocross course that I often photograph at - With the lake level remaining at 22.3 feet over normal the MX course is submerged with 9 feet of water..... People are now fishing instead of riding MX - When you get lemons, make lemonade!

I jazzed this up by warming up the image and adding the sunburst in LR5 (DD)

Exif: F Number: 8, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/3200 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 800, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 18.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS M
