Low and wide angle shot at the lakeshore of Lake Chuzenji, located in Nikko, one of the famous historic and scenic places in the area close to Tokyo.
Convict Lake is a lake in the Sherwin Range of the Sierra Nevada in California, USA. It is known for its fishing and the dramatic mountains (including Mount Morrison) that surround the lake. Its surface lies at an elevation of 7,850 ft. (2,393 m).
The lake was named after an incident on September 23, 1871, where a group of convicts escaped from prison in Carson City. A posse, from Benton, led by Deputy Sheriff George Hightower, encountered the convicts near the head of what is now Convict Creek. Posse member Robert Morrison, a Benton merchant and Wells Fargo Agent, was killed in the encounter, and Mount Morrison was named after him.
Emerald Lake is located in Yoho National Park, British Columbia, Canada. It is the largest of Yoho's 61 lakes and ponds.
The first European to set sight on Emerald Lake was guide Tom Wilson, who stumbled upon it by accident in 1882. A string of his horses had gotten away, and it was while tracking them that he first entered the valley. The lake had an impression on even the most seasoned of explorers: "For a few moments I sat on my horse and enjoyed the rare, peaceful beauty of the scene." It was Wilson who gave the lake its name because of its remarkable colour, caused by fine particles of glacial sediment, also referred to as rock flour, suspended in the water.
Thank you for your comments.

Taal Volcano is an active volcano which can be found at Tagaytay PH. Its location is very unique because it was formed at the center of a lake. If you wish to see the volcano's crater, there are some tour guides who are offering this service. Less than an hour of boat ride and an hour of horse back riding then you'll be able to see it's biggest crater at the center.
Aside from that, you'll experience a cold wind in Tagaytay at night. This is the main reason why many Pilipinos visit this city mostly during summer, which is the school vacation here in PH, and on the last quarter of the year.
Since it's summer during the time i took this shot, my family and i went up to Tagaytay to relax and for our younger cousins to try out horse back riding. On the place where we stayed, i saw that Taal Volcano can be seen clearly so i get my camera and take some shots of it.
This is the story of this shot.
Thank you for reading and i hope you'll follow my future posts. :)
Patricia Lake is a lake in Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada, near the town of Jasper.
Der Patricia Lake / See liegt im Jasper Nationalpark in der kanadischen Provinz Alberta in der nähe von Jasper.
Last evenings view exposing the lack of snow with grass showing. A few weeks back there was four to five inches of snow covering the grass and lake.
String Lake is a small lake at the foot of the Grand Tetons in Grand Teton National Park. It has a well appointed campground and daysite and is popular with boaters and swimmers.
After I dropped Joey off at school I was headed to the Skyline Drive to get some new images...that was until I remembered that my wife was at a client meeting all day. That meant I should be the "Responsible Daddy" and stay where I had cell signal in case something happened and I needed to get Joey from school. Yes, there is little to no cell signal ANYWHERE along the Skyline Drive (Shenandoah National Park). "Aughh".
So I decided to toot around while the clouds were nice and see what I could find to shoot. I found a nice 120 acre lake along route 340 which offered a few nice shots. And, I think I found somewhere that I can take Joey fishing this summer. Yay.
Do you know the situation … you shold use a tripod to take a picture, but you have not taken it with you. During our sommer holiday I take it one day with me. And I was looking the whole day for a small lake to capture. Nealy at the end of the day I would take my chance ;-)
Taken a few weeks ago... My friend Max and I decided to head to Abraham Lake for sunrise.
What a great morning it was.
A lake is the landscape's most beautiful and expressive feature.
It is earth's eye..
looking into which the beholder measures the depth of his own nature

Blue lake
The Gaatkenplas in pure calmess.
Just sweet blue water , reflections and clouds.
The , man made, Gaatkensplas is a lake in South-Holland , the Netherlands.
In the middle of this picture , where the lake is rather deep, they've found archaeological remains from a late bronze age culture, in dutch called the Klokbekercultuur.
The remains are well taken care of, for later, when archaeological research is even better developed, and when there is enough money for a good research. (once in the far, far future...)

Upper Tipsoo Lake
Mount Rainier National Park, Washington
The clouds constantly moving around Tipsoo Lake and we kept guessing where it will end up for our sunset shot. In the meantime, my nephew and I kept framing shots and also fighting the mosquitoes (we were covered all the way to our head and they are still attacking us). There were only 3 photographers at this location and the lady was very kind to give us some of her mosquito spray, seeing us swatting away those blood suckers. Thanks to her and I believe her name was Kathy. Mother nature gave us a nice break with some incredible display of light around this lake at sunset time (those images will be coming soon). What a way to end our 4 days around Washington, quite a memorable afternoon. This is it for now on my Rainier images I need to learn some workflow to work on the rest of my images. ;-)
