Join me for a COUNTDOWN of my 50 Top Summer Pics – and the story behind each shot
#20 – Mountain of Color
07.26.2010 – 6:52pm – Crater Lake, Oregon – f/7.1 – 1/125 -0.33 Canon T1i – Tamron 18-270 lens
Even though the mosquitoes were fierce, it was worth stopping along the highway around Crater Lake, Oregon. I could not believe the complementary colors visible from this vista. The blue and orange hues were particularly intense due to the recent storm. As I have mentioned before, shooting post-storm gives you some nice cloud action, and the colors really pop!
