Chittenden Reservoir, Vermont.

As the sun rises over Chittenden Reservoir, the landscape transforms. Golden light reaches across the surrounding autumn foliage, while steam rises from the water as it meets the warmer morning air after a cold night.

The lingering fog, warm sunlight, and reflections on the water create a beautiful contrast between the cool temperatures of early morning and the warmth of the first sunlight.
