I can imagine that. What a lovely shot. Perfect.
This isn't a good shot but there are interesting bits. First, it's at 600mm and gives an example of why long lenses can be great for landscapes (though 600mm is challenging with shimmer and heat). A little focus stacking or smaller aperture (and a tripod, which I didn't have with me) and those mountains really pop with distance compression. They aren't that close looking in real life. The next thing is I took this image because I was trying to get a count of Bald Eagles ice fishing. If you look along near the intersection of water and land there are 8 (that I count). This lake gets dozens each year (100 were counted in a 5 minute scan recently, apparently) and a few breed there. The nests are absolutely massive (as are the birds).

Just exquisite. Has a painterly look to it.....

An older shot from a while back and in warmer weather. American Avocets are very protective of their nesting areas (makes perfect sense!) and they will dive on intruders making a lot of noise.

Spent some time yesterday on another rainy afternoon having some fun with food coloring, a little glycerin and some water:

Just got back my break and did a quick edit on a photo I took. A bout 7am on a foggy morning and the sun was golden and blasting the forest.
My view this morning. Shot and edited on iPhone XS plus.
Absolutely beautifully taken shot, terrific composition and gorgeous subject matter.
Panorama looking out from the top of Box Hill in the county of Surrey...
