Crater Lake
View from west rim of Crater Lake at Crater Lake National Park, the only national park in Oregon. The deep blue water is some of the purest water in the world, the result of rain and melted snow filling a nearly 2000 foot caldera formed after the eruption of Mt. Mazama some 7700 years ago. Roots from a Whitebark Pine help frame a small portion of this immense lake. A circular polarizing filter and graduated ND filter were used to compensate for the strong mid-afternoon sun.
Crater Lake belongs to the following groups:
AMERICA's National Parks and WILDLIFE Habitat, Landscape Photography, National Parks of the World and Pacific Northwest Available for sale asGreeting Cards, Matted Prints, Laminated Prints, Mounted Prints, Canvas Prints, Framed Prints and Posters

Nicely done, Jonathan, I like the effect of your polarizer filter. I have a shot on mybubble that has wizard island in front, however I used a Sony point and shoot, this was several years ago and so did not have a polarizer filter. It was a clear day and so bright. The polarizer filter makes a big difference.
