Sunset

in photography •  5 years ago 

My wife's bicycle tires were empty. Because I'm a lazy man and because the pump was lost, I loaded the bicycle into my wife's car and drove to the one service station that had a functioning tire gauge that I know of. It was handy to be able to inflate the bicycle tires in a few seconds and get the car tires inflated to the right pressure at the same time.

That service station happens to be near the place where we used to live. I drove up there to take a few long exposures of the sunset by the lake there.

A view to the west

The district of Viuha on the opposite shore. Some family man from that district uses his all terrain vehicle that has a plow attached to it to make a skating trail on the ice in the winter. It's prohibited because no motor vehicles of any kind are allowed on this small lake. But nobody cares because it's such a big service to all the residents in the areas around the lake.

Interesting I hate pumping the bike up myself but I never knew the car pump would have the same valves a bike wheel.

It doesn't have the same valve but there is more than enough pressure to inflate bike tires despite a lot of the air leaking past the bike tire valve.

Not a bad place to ride. Worth loading up the car. I like how you included all the angles of what you were seeing.

Thanks. I didn't ride the bike. I just went to a service station to inflate the tires on it.

You are very fortunate to have those views so close to your home. The lake is beautiful, maybe I think that way because I haven't a lake near me but it surely is a great view

You surely needs to pay your wife then for driving her car

i like your post. I love your personality. 👏👏👏
