Description

This very simple, minimalistic image was captured at the north end of Eagle Lake in Lassen County, California, USA. I spent about an hour just enjoying the solitude on the end of Rocky Point, which sits adjacent to a large cove known locally as Buck’s Bay. The entire time I was there on this mid-September evening my only company was a few ducks and the bats flitting around in the wonderful blue hour light looking for their evening meal.

Eagle Lake sits at a surface elevation of just over 5,000 feet above sea level. It is among the largest natural lakes in California with a catchment area of some 21,500 acres. It is home to a trophy strain of rainbow trout that anglers often travel great distances to catch. It also supports many species of water fowl as well as raptors including bald eagles and osprey. I consider it my “home” lake as I’ve spent a great deal of time there and made many wonderful memories from fishing with my son or friends to just getting in a few hours of solitude as was the case on this evening (although, by September my boy and I are pondering the fishing which usually starts to get good in October).

I opted for a 16:9 or "widescreen" crop on this image as I believe it is the best fit to balance the scene and give it a bit of a "panoramic" feel.
