Radnor Lake is one of my favorite places in Nashville to photograph the sunrise. It is a bit of a drive, and the park open only a half hour before sunrise, but it is far enough away from the city for it to be absolutely quiet at 6 AM. The only noise heard at this hour are bugs buzzing around and the sound of wind rustling through the leaves. Well, that is the case on most days. This morning I had inadvertently angered a beaver, and it began swimming back and forth in front of me, slapping its tail in the water.
Since I wanted the water to appear as clear as glass, the waves that it was creating was not going to make that possible. I turned off my flashlight, and quietly set up my camera, then patiently waited for 10 minutes until it finally stopped. Over the next hour and a half I made several photographs, and my very first video, of the sunrise over Radnor Lake.
