  • A hint of golden sunrise color shines through the dark storm clouds hovering over Wizard Island and Crater Lake in Crater Lake National Park, Oregon. Crater Lake, the deepest fresh water lake in North America, is located in a caldera at the top of what was once Mount Mazama. A massive eruption around 5,700 B.C. caused the mountain to collapse. While the Wizard Island cone is long dormant, there is some hydrothermal activity at the bottom of Crater Lake, suggesting the mountain is still active.

  • The rising sun clears the eastern caldera rim of Crater Lake, Oregon. Wizard Island, a dormant volcanic cone formed after the cataclysmic eruption of the ancient Mount Mazama, is visible in the foreground. Crater Lake, protected as a national park, is the deepest freshwater lake in North America.

  • The rising sun clears the eastern caldera rim of Crater Lake, Oregon. Wizard Island, a dormant volcanic cone formed after the cataclysmic eruption of the ancient Mount Mazama, is visible near the center of the image. Crater Lake, protected as a national park, is the deepest freshwater lake in North America.

  • The deep blue color of Crater Lake is visible in this early spring aerial view over Crater Lake National Park, Oregon. Crater Lake, located in the caldera of what was once Oregon's Mount Mazama, is the deepest lake in the United States and the seventh deepest in the world. Its deep blue color results from the clarity of the water. The water is so clear that sunlight travels deep into the lake, losing all but the blue wavelengths in the process. Crater Lake has a maximum depth of 1,946 feet (593 meters). Wizard Island, a volcanic cinder cone that rises about 755 feet (230 meters) above the lake, is visible at the bottom-center of the lake in this image.

  • The sun sets behind the rim of Crater Lake in this view from the Cloud Cap Overlook in Crater Lake National Park, Oregon. Crater Lake, which is actually a caldera, formed when Mount Mazama erupted violently about 7,700 years ago, causing its summit to collapse. Subsequent eruptions sealed the caldera, trapping rain water and snowmelt, forming the lake, which has a maximum depth of 1,949 feet (594 meters). Wizard Island, a volcanic cinder cone, is visible in the lake just beneath the sun; Phantom Ship, another remnant of volcanic activity, is visible as an island on the left side of the image.

  • A natural nighttime pillar of light known as the Zodiacal Light shines above and is reflected in Crater Lake, Oregon. The Zodiacal Light results from the sun shining on dust particles from old comets. The dust particles - the largest of which are believed to be just 0.3 mm and miles from its nearest neighboring particle - orbit the sun in a range from Mars to beyond Jupiter. Visible year-round in the tropics, the Zodiacal Light is best viewed immediately around the spring and fall solstice farther from the equator. The planet Venus, the brightest object in the sky, is visible near the peak of the Zodiacal Light and is also reflected in Crater Lake. The Milky Way, visible on the right, intersects with the Zodiacal Light at the top-center of the image. Crater Lake, which is actually a caldera, formed when Mount Mazama erupted violently about 7,700 years ago, causing its summit to collapse. Subsequent eruptions sealed the caldera, trapping rain water and snowmelt, forming the lake, which has a maximum depth of 1,949 feet (594 meters). Wizard Island, a volcanic cinder code, is visible in the foreground.

The planet Venus is the brightest object in the sky and is visible near the center of the image and reflected in the lake.
