View of Crater Lake (I should have called this "blue", I hesitated posting it because it looks too blue, but I didn't change the saturation at all).
Crater lake is one of the bluest appearing lakes in the world.
It is set in a dormant volcano called Mount Mazama, one in the chain of volcanoes that includes Mount St. Helens. Mount Mazama's eruption about 5700 B.C. catapulted volcanic ash miles into the sky and expelled so much pumice and ash that the summit soon collapsed, creating a huge, smoldering caldera.
Eventually, rain and snowmelt accumulated in the caldera, forming a lake more than 1,900 feet deep, the deepest lake in the United States..
