It was the first time outside of the backyard that my kids had ever been tent camping.  We relaxed, made a fire, and of course, I brought my camera.  Besides the images of the family, I did manage to sneak away to do a bit of work on the shore of Branched Oak Lake.  My oldest daughter had found this rock earlier in the day on a hike and wanted me to photograph it &#8211; she loved the green moss growing on the sides and how it was by itself out in the water a bit.  I always enjoy having my daughters with me when I&#8217;m photographing as they point out things around me I might otherwise miss.  <\/p>\n<p>When the sun began to set and the clouds and color looked just right, I knew this was the rock I had to photograph.  The sunset didn&#8217;t last long, but it brought an ethereal feel to the water and surroundings and helped to create the mood. I was pleased with the evening and was excited to have been able to capture my daughter&#8217;s rock for her with a beautiful sunset.<\/p>\n<p>Technical Details:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bhphotovideo.com\/c\/product\/986389-REG\/canon_8469b002_canon_eos_70d_dslr.html\/BI\/9044\/KBID\/10607\" target=\"_blank\">Canon 70D<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bhphotovideo.com\/c\/product\/351542-USA\/Canon_9518A002_EF_S_10_22mm_f_3_5_4_5_USM.html\/BI\/9044\/KBID\/10607\" target=\"_blank\">10-22 ef-s<\/a>,  f\/14, 1.3 sec., 2-stop Singh-Ray Hard Stop ND Grad Filter<br \/>\nBranched Oak Lake State Recreation Area, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.journeyoflight.com\/photo-gallery\/Nebraska\" target=\"_blank\">Nebraska<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A couple of weeks ago I took the family to Branched Oak Lake to camp.
