Delton: One of my favorite places on the planet and one I’m headed to in a couple of months. Doubt there will be snow like this so I envy you the experience and the opportunity. Perfect timing on the sunrise. I’m torn between your comp and wanting to see all of Wizard Island. Still a marvelous scene and a fine capture. >=))>

Neato shot of a magical place. I’m guessing that you had to do some hiking to get to this well chosen spot. WORTH the trouble!

Beautiful Delton. I love the sunburst and the golden rim of sky that offsets the cold snow and icy looking lake. We were up there last January and got a nice cloudy socked in day . . .
