Description
This image was captured at Miner’s Point on Eagle Lake in Lassen County, California, USA. I captured the image during blue hour as a waxing crescent moon was setting and an evening breeze was blowing enough water up on the muddy bank to cause a reflection from the moon amid the rocks strewn around the area.
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 such as the mid-September evening when I captured this image and I spent several hours there without seeing another human.
