Tahoe Sunset
Lake Tahoe, California
This image captures perhaps the most spectacular sunset I have witnessed. I stood on the beach of Lake Tahoe’s South Shore as the sky and water transformed before me into this incredible scene ablaze with color.
Order PrintsLake Tahoe
The breathtakingly blue of Lake Tahoe is so clear that in some places objects can be seen to depths of 75 feet. The reason the lake is so blue is that the thin, clear mountain air allows the lake's pure, crystalline water to reflect the blue sky above. The lake can also appear red during sunsets or gray-black during storms. Lake Tahoe is 22 miles in length, 12 miles in width and has a max depth of 1,645 feet!
