My name is Barbara and I'm retired and live in Hillsboro, Oregon. I'm a SNOB - a member of the Society of Native Oregon Born. I've lived in Oregon for almost my entire 65 years. The exception is the 18 month stint in Kansas while my husband got his Masters Degree at Kansas State.ÂÂ
I have a Canon SD200 and have only been taking pictures for the last couple of years. I got the camera so I could take pictures of my four grandsons, but I then discovered that I like taking pictures of other things as well. So it has been a fun two years of taking pictures.
Being a Grandma is the best thing ever.  My four grandsons are Jon who is 21 and has Cystic Fibrosis and is also a cancer survivor. His brother, Brad, is 15 and lives 7 minutes away. Joey is 11 and his brother Tim is 8, and they live in Portland, 40 minutes away.ÂÂ

Very pretty, Barbara. I've never seen the lake this smooth, you were very lucky. Welcome to the community. I hope we'll be seeing more from you.

The image is very serene. The use of the tree for a frame at side is good. The only postwork that could be done is a bit of contrast to make the trees a bit sharper. It is hard though, with distant shots to lose the misty look in the mountains in the back from their blue hue.That is how we see them in real too. So this is an excellent image.

The reflections in this wonderful capture are so clear. I can just imagine the great day you had on this lake when it was so calm. This really is a wonderful scene.
