Description
On Memorial Day we took a drive out to Lake Townsend, which is our largest watershed lake in Greensboro, NC. It was very sunny but the light had a beautiful cast across the water and around this boat as I took this capture. I did use a texture with this image to enhance the tones of that light.
Lake Townsend, named in honor of James R. Townsend, City Manager of Greensboro from 1947-1961, is the largest of Greensboro�s municipal reservoirs. The lake encompasses 1,542 acres and is adjacent to the Bryan Park Complex and Golf Course off Highway 29 North. The lake was built and open for recreation in 1969. Lake Townsend offers boat and pier fishing, pleasure boating, and sailing. Popular fish include largemouth bass, hybrid bass, catfish, and crappie. Kayaks, rowboats, sailboats and one eight-person pontoon boat are available to rent. A large boat ramp is available for private boat launching, with another launch ramp for small sailboats.
