Landscape Photo Competition 3 2012 : Entry Number 68

Another atmospheric gem! The backlit clouds and silhouette of the island make this a true contender. The colour is rich and the tones are all well exposed. We have a real dream scene here, a beautiful capture. I find that the horizon slopes off somewhat to the left though, preventing this lovely shot from getting further. Good try!

Sunrise at Upper Dam. This photo was taken by Peter Brown at dawn on a july morning on Maine's Rangeley Lakes. Shot with a canon 40d, 53mm focal length, f5 at 1/8000th.
