Moosecamp Lake sunrise Sept. 2007. Some people asked me if I added color to this pic but it's exactly the way it was that morning. It was certainly the reddest sky I have ever seen.

I don't think I can compete with the bright sunny red skies that others found.
But here is something different. It was clear to the west and the sun was going down. It was still raining pretty hard at our camp site...

like most Trippers i have lots of sunset photos,some more
eye-popping than this,but i thought i would post it because
it was this first time i have see a sunset on Finger Lake.

around the island to a camp set in four terraces cut out of
the hillside.for one guy it was ok and i got some nice sunset
photos..
