More Lake Tahoe

Ok - Lake Tahoe is fantastically blue, which I didn't fully realize until I went there in the summer for the first time. Last year, I went on a boat cruise with a friend, and I went again this year. When you are out on the lake, you can get a really good sense of the 3 different colors that the lake takes on - deep royal blue, turquoise blue (like the Caribbean), and an emerald green.

Here's a shot where you can see one of the transitional areas. In the foreground, where there is the deep blue, it means that the water is very deep, and the color is a reflection of the sky. In the distance, you can see a turquoise, and that is an indication that the water is 30-100 feet.


And now a few shots of just the lake. It really is an incredible color
