A Big Pipe Feeding Boyd Lake

17 October 2008 No Comment

Boyd Lake State Park

When I paddled Boyd Lake last time in summer it was pretty low. Today I was skating on a bike trail along the lake. The water level is rising. It may be a nice time to paddle there. I didn’t see any motor boats, just one catamaran sailing and a couple of windsurfers having fun with a strong wind.

After my skating I had a long photo session featuring a big pipe supplying water to the lake from Horseshoe Reservoir on the other side of highway. You cannot see that pipe behind the marina at high water.

Canon EOS 40D on a tripod, different angles, different shutter speeds – I shot more than 100 pictures, and I am still not completely satisfied by the results. You can call it “Obsession by a big pipe.”
