New Donner Lake Dock Photo Today
After an early morning business networking meeting today, I decided to take a quick drive to Donner Lake before heading back home. The clouds finally cleared up a bit and it's not snowing! I love the snow, but I am happy to get a break from all the snow removal.
Again, there really isn't many areas to park around town, but there were a couple parking spots by the Donner Lake docks again. My original plans for going up to Donner Summit changed when I saw that the road was closed and still had a few feet of snow on it. It might be a few days before I can make it up there again... So another dock photo, they tend to sell fairly well as fine art prints so I am always happy to shoot more.
Shot on a Canon 5DS R with a 24-105mm lens, set at 58mm. The ISO was 100, the lens aperture was f/18, and the shutter speed was 1/200 of a second. Handheld exposure, I had to climb up and over a big snow berm for this shot so it was a lot easier to leave the tripod in the car. No lens filters either.
So... I've mentioned a few times in my posts that there isn't much parking around town. I decided to take a quick shot of the road along Donner Lake. Yup, this is how most of the roads around Truckee, California look right now. No parking.
We're supposed to get about 5 more inches of fresh snow tomorrow. Then we get a break for a long while, good because I need it!
Thank you for looking and I hope you are all having a great day.

@scottshots Almost all of them didn't even see their true faces, everything turned cold white, snow.
Taking a quick shot will be a safe haven for you when your vehicle doesn't have a proper parking space.
Great shot of Donner Lake. We are supposed to finally get some more snow this weekend. There is snow here up in the mountains but I am kinda in the foothills between the Champlain Valley and the Green Mountains. Th
Thank you, and hope you get some of the fresh stuff! I'm looking forward to the break we are supposed to get after today's 5 inches...
Beautiful!!! 🤗
Precioso trabajo, muy lindas fotografías..
Some impressive captures of this landscape that looks like a painting with large trails of white by the snow and the sky, which make good contrast.
Glad you like them!
👍
Espectacular el paisaje y espectaculares las fotos, sin dudas que uno siente estar ahí. Gracias por compartir
Feliz de compartir y feliz de que te gusten las fotos. ¡Salud!
Been a good snow year so far, it is nice to have a break though.
A nice and needed break, indeed. I love the snow but when it's non stop like that for so long, it starts to get old. Should be a good year for waterfall photos and hopefully wildflower photos too. Cheers!
