Spirit Lake

The white objects you see in the lake
is logs from the eruption of Mt. St Helens.
After thirty years the logs are still
floating in the lake.

Wonderful contours and mood, Katie.
The serenity is almost palpable.

I can't believe that it has been 30 years. This is such a placid scene. It's hard to imagine the violence that occurred there.

The lake is still there...that is good. I know how much this area was impacted by the eruption. Beautiful image!

How amazing to think it's been 30 years since the eruption. I wonder how long they will remain like this.

Excellent composition, and a good story to go with it.
