Revelling in the beauty of Crater Lake!
Over the weekend Jean and I went up to Klamath Falls to spend two nights in the company of good friends, Trish and Andy, who live in Tucson, Az.
Last Sunday we all jumped into our car, a GMC Canyon with 4WD, and drove the 60-odd miles from Klamath Falls to the Rim Village Visitor Center.
Talk about impressive!
Here are three photographs that I took that are presented untouched, as in no post processing, that I wanted to share with you.
More details coming along, plus more photos for the next Picture Parade.
The first was taken during Saturday afternoon when Jean and I were on our way to Klamath Falls.
The next photograph was taken when we stopped in one of the many ‘turnouts’ along the highway going up to Crater Lake. In fairness, the high snow bank was more a result of the snow blowers than falling snow … but still!
This last photograph, for today anyway, is the sight of Crater Lake!
What an incredible landscape!
P.S. Happy Birthday, dear Morten!
Learning from Dogs 
My cousin lives in Klamath Falls! When I went thru Oregon I wanted to see Crater Lake bit it wasn’t meant to be at that particular moment in time.
Stunning photographs.

In fairness, most of the credit should go to the better ‘tool’ I am using. As in the Nikon D750 camera. An incredible camera if only the owner could understand really how to use it!!
