Going back to a special environment that means something to you is what good photography is all about. Once you have been to a scene you have more ideas of what can and will make a better image. You have done the initial leg work and have had that inspirational moment, when you just know that this place is special. A great location inspires you to have patience and wait for the best light (sunrise/sunset), composition (you have already tried a number of them previously), atmospheric conditions (depending on the time of the year), and details that can all come together and make a great photograph. For me Lake Cassidy is one of those places. In an earlier post I mentioned a missed opportunity that arose when I wasn't prepared because of nervous energy that sabotaged my composition and choice of lens. I wanted to post some images of the lake when I was more calm and sure of my lens, composition and light.
