Oneida Lake Sunset

As the year ends, I want to wish everyone happy Holidays and all the best in the New Year! On a recent family trip, we stopped to visit friends at Lake Oneida in NY, and witnessed this lovely sunset. Sunset photos can get boring pretty fast, but this was an unusually good light show. Several times when I thought it was over, it would do an encore. :-)
