Lake Rudan on a calm day

Autumn Lake Reflection


I'm a sucker for cool reflection photos, and a while back I was visiting Nedre Rudasjön (Lower Lake Rudan) in Handen, and stopped at the cliff at the south end for a chat with one of the anglers. The photo in yesterdays post is from the other lake here. The fisherman told me that the fishing club had just planted a few hundred kilos of fish that morning and all the piers around the lake were filled with hopeful fishers. It was a beautiful day with no wind, and as the water was very calm I figured it was a perfect day for photography. This is the view towards Upper Lake Rudan where you will find the Theatre Barn and the ski club where that upset skier is a member.

  8. In the late 70s, I took a bath in that lake. Suddenly i felt something under my foot. I thought I had stepped on a tree root, but when I went up from the water I understood that it had been a piece of glass. The cut were about two centimeters deep and seven centimeters long. Even now I can remember how it felt. Still - it's a fine lake. :-)

  13. Thanks Abe.

    Glad you like this view.

    Snow? Who said that? No snow here yet for a while I hope.

    That sounds very painful Johnny.

    No boats or canoes in this lake Leif.

  19. This is another beautiful reflection shot, but I just saw your photo of yesterday post which I like more. Anyway this is perfect, probably a bit too much perfect. Yes, I am absolutely envious...
