Crater Lake

Nice view of the lake and I like the BW choice. Has good contrast with a nice range of tones. Well done. Chet

Rick, this is really a very nice image. The large verasion hints at the detail that you've captured. My only nit, and it is a very small one, is I would darken the lrc bright spot that continually draws my eye and may that little spot on the foreground beach. Beautiful !!!

excellent b&w. I find the intruding branch in the upper right corner a bit distracting but love the mood and majesty of this comp.

This is a fine look at Crater lake. I really like your framing. I too find the whiteness of the branch urc distracting and wish for some more contrast between the framing branches on the right and the crater sides behind them.

A classic look to this one, Rick. A fine range of tones throughout. I like the comp as well, with the bright branch in the urc and the bright area in the lrc burned down to reduce their eye pull.

Thanks to the constructive replies. The extra set of eyes here always help. I considered the ulc branch and snow in brc but thought otherwise. Wrong again.
I was glad to hear the suggestions and appreciate the thoughts. This was the most spectacular landscape I visited last year and was amazed that it's beauty and grandeur exceeded all I had read about.
The history from the original Indians who revered this spot to the unknown fact to most that there is a helicopter with three bodies that were unrecoverable due to the depth lying on the bottom at 1,900 feet that a clerk told me in Ashland is worth reading up on.

Ah, now I see the cloud flow better. Nice!!
