We were running late getting to our hike because we had to make a pit stop for our favorite breakfast of choice:  donuts and breakfast burritos.  As we were coming into Marble the sun still hadn’t crested over the mountain yet.  We got out of the car to snap some shots of the lake as it looked like a clear sheet of glass on this particular morning.  The mist was coming off the lake and as I took a few shots I saw the sun start to eclipse over the peak.  The reflection was flawless as I noticed the sunburst shining right on the lake below me.  I took the snap just at the perfect moment to capture it cutting over the ridge, reflecting off the lake, while illuminating the trees and the house right over the lake.
