DSCF0722.JPG6 viewsBack to the 35 mm prime. This time I removed the polarizing filter, which will capture any glistening on the water surface, and allow me to shoot at a lower ISO, with less noise. I didn't anticipate the bright moon coming through the tent wall, directly into my eyes as I slept on my back.Sep 11, 2023

DSCF0717.JPG6 viewsThis was shot at the long end of the 50-200 mm lens. The Fuji XT-2 certainly lacks the low light capability of the Canon 5D-- but it is so much lighter!Sep 11, 2023

DSCF0716.JPG6 viewsI have the lake to myself, unlike last year. Like last year, there are two women camped at the outlet of Sapphire Lake. They appear to be the only other party in the lake basin. Had I not chatted with them for so long, I might have caught some fish. I had not seen anyone for two days, so I don't regret being social.Sep 11, 2023

DSCF0715.JPG5 views8:30 pm and the fish are active under the almost full moon. I'm in the process of finishing dinner, but photography always comes first. Never got that line in water. I'll wait until morning. I took advantage of warm temperatures to wash my feet and lower legs, as well as my socks before heading off to bed.Sep 11, 2023

DSCF0713.JPG4 viewsAnother stream flows into the south end of Cirque Lake. The lake is very shallow at the inlet of this stream. It's already 6 pm, and my hopes of getting a line in the water at Cove Lake are dwindling. Still have to set up the tent, set the hang for the food, pump water, and make some dinner.Sep 11, 2023

DSCF0712.JPG4 viewsThe inlet is very deep, especially below the sunlit boulders on the right. I saw several large trout just off that rock on the inlet side. I noted the time, hoping to return the next day. Afternoon thundershowers put an end to those hopes.Sep 11, 2023
