"Mount Shuksan and Picture Lake in the Fall"
“A Moment of Silence”
Looking East From Picture Lake Into North Cascades National Park, Washington. The day I went up to Picture Lake to take this photo, it was extremely windy. I thought my day was wasted as I really wanted to capture the reflections of Mount Shuksan. When I got my camera set up for the shoot, the wind subsided and the resulting picture was taken. When I finished the shoot, the wind started up again and the reflections disappeared. That was a lucky day for me…....Lynn

What a crisp, clear, flawless shot.
Lynn Bawden in reply to Marylamb’s comment, 3 months ago
Marylamb…Thanks for your comment on my “Mount Shuksan and Picture Lake” photo. When I arrived up at Picture Lake, it was windy and the water had no reflections in it. I decided to shoot anyway and just as I did, the winds stopped and the resulting scene took place. After I took several oictures, the wind started up again. That was my lucky day. I looked over your site and your colors are vibrant. I especially loved the covered bridges. Where were they taken?...Lynn
