Visiting the Arbuckle Lake in Sulphur

This morning I wanted to take pictures of the sunrise at the Arbuckle Lake so I left my house around 6:45 a.m. This lake is located less than a two hour drive from both the Dallas and Oklahoma City areas. But , of course, for me it is about 25 minutes from home on highway 35. 
  The weather was great...cool and clear. However, I checked the sunrise time on the internet ...one more time. I usually use http://www.sunrisesunset.com/ or www.cmpsolv.com/los/sunset.html . The information said that the sunrise would be around 7:20 a.m so I had to hurry if I wanted to be in the lake on time.
  Since I liked to take scenic view of the lake, I took my Nikkor 18-200mm lenses and my Nikon D200. To avoid reflection, I used a polarizing filter.
  By the time I arrived, there were three fishermen in the marina. I saw some birds and the rest of the lake was very quiet.





   These are some of my favorite ones:
