Trillium Lake

Mount Hood, snow-capped and illuminated by golden light, rises above a dense evergreen forest, reflecting in the calm surface of Trillium Lake under an orange and blue sky.

August at Trillium Lake, and the light was soft and golden, illuminating the peak of Mount Hood. The water was calm enough to reflect the mountain and the surrounding forest, creating a mirror image of the scene above. The air was crisp and clear, making for a perfect morning of photography.
