Crater Lake Oregon A Deep Blue Wonder of Nature

Right in the heart of southern Oregon's Cascade Mountains, Crater Lake is a breathtaking natural marvel, known for its intense sapphire-blue waters, remarkable clarity, and dramatic geological history. Formed over 7,000 years ago by the collapse of the ancient Mount Mazama volcano.

Crater Lake Oregon A Deep Blue Wonder of Nature Right in the heart of southern Oregon's Cascade Mountains, Crater Lake is a breathtaking natural marvel, known for its intense sapphire-blue waters, remarkable clarity, and dramatic geological history. Formed over 7,000 years ago by the collapse of the ancient Mount Mazama volcano, this deep caldera lake is the deepest lake in the United States, plunging to a depth of 1,943 feet (592 meters). Surrounded by towering cliffs that rise up to 2,000 feet above the lake's surface, Crater Lake lies within Crater Lake National Park, a protected wilderness rich with forests, volcanic rock formations, and diverse wildlife. The lake itself has no rivers flowing in or out; instead, it is fed entirely by rain and snow, which contributes to its stunning purity and color. Wizard Island, a cinder cone that emerged after the initial eruption, rises from the western side of the lake, resembling a miniature volcanic island. Nearby, the eerie Phantom Ship, a jagged rock formation, juts up from the water like a ghostly schooner, adding to the lake’s mystical appeal. https://fineartamerica.com/featured/crater-lake-oregon-a-deep-blue-wonder-of-nature-wayne-moran.html #CraterLake #NationalPark #Oregon #Nature #hiking #Landscape #photography #travel #travelphotography #AYearForArt #buyintoArt

“Salt Flats to Mountain Peaks” — Snow-covered Telescope and Rogers Peaks and the Panamint Mountains tower above Death Valley salt flats in morning shadows.

It still seems odd to find water flowing here, but out on the salt flats of Death Valley it does flow at all times of the year. It is extremely shallow and it moves very slowly — but the amount of moisture out there is still impressive. Hint: don’t walk on these flats — you aren’t going to enjoy the thick mud on your shoes, the sensation of sinking into it, or the tracks you leave behind…continues: gdanmitchell.com/2025/04/10/sa

Winter Beauty Yosemite National Park Tunnel View

snowstorm swept through the valley, dressing the granite giants in a delicate veil of white. From Tunnel View, the world opened like a dream—El Capitan standing watchful to the left, Bridalveil Fall flowing like silver lace to the right, and Half Dome rising distant and proud, crowned in snow.

Winter Beauty Yosemite National Park Tunnel View snowstorm swept through the valley, dressing the granite giants in a delicate veil of white. From Tunnel View, the world opened like a dream—El Capitan standing watchful to the left, Bridalveil Fall flowing like silver lace to the right, and Half Dome rising distant and proud, crowned in snow. The usual bustle of the park had vanished; I was alone with the wild. Clouds drifted like whispers through the trees, and the air was thick with the scent of pine and snow. In that sacred stillness, time seemed to pause. The storm had carved out a moment just for me—a fleeting, holy silence in one of nature’s grandest cathedrals. This was Yosemite not as many see it, but as few are privileged to feel it: quiet, wild, and deeply alive.

"Sapopema" é o nome dado às raízes grossas das grandes árvores da Amazônia, como a Samaumeira ou Samaúma. Se você estiver perdido na mata e precisar informar a sua localização a alguém próximo, é só bater na raiz com algo resistente.. como um galho grosso! O som emitido pela raiz, além de bem alto, pode ser escutado a uma grande distância.

* "Sapopema" is the name given to the thick roots of the large Amazon trees, such as "Samaumeira" or "Samaúma". If you are lost in the woods and need to inform your location to someone close, just hit the root with something resistant.. like a thick branch! The sound emitted by the root, in addition to being very loud, can be heard at a great distance.

Short video panning over the #landscape in #Sumapaz #NationalPark, #Colombia. This is around 3,700 m above sea level in one of the largest remaining areas of the #Páramo ecosystem. The swamp in the middle of the scanned area contained lesser #yellowlegs, Andean #teal and American #coot. The surrounding areas held Boyaca #antpitta, Apolinar's #wren, green-throated #helmetcrest, many-striped #canastero and Brazilian #GuineaPigs.
