Day 311 - Sparkles on Lake Ontario

Sunlight on Lake Ontario. I'm visiting family and friends in the ol' country and, while walking along the northern shore of this beautiful lake, found this wonderful scene. I tried a little experiment, asking my sister to stand in the bottom left corner of the frame to see if there was any way I could get, in one photo, a balance between the light on the water and the light on her face. The results: no way. Either she was reduced to a silhouette (as here) and the sunlight reasonably visible or you could see her face but the background was just a sheet of white.
