Fresh mountain snow and water reflections

A quick snap I took this weekend at McIntosh Lake in Longmont, Colorado. The sun was rising to my back and while it was gorgeous, in the opposite direction was an equally pretty scene. To the left is the 14,259 foot tall Longs Peak, covered in its first healthy shot of snow of the season. to the right are some small lenticular clouds. These ‘spaceships’ are common in the colder months and pretty darned cool. Underneath, reflections of both are seen on the lake’s surface. Both were illuminated by the golden sunrise.
