Embrace The Calmness of the Lake

Photographer's Statement:

My aunt and I love hiking and every year we hike Scout Mountain. This lake is so beautiful during this time of year. We usually sit here and enjoy our lunch while listening to the frogs, birds and just the amazing sounds of nature. This is such a special place to me and this photograph really shows the beauty of this lake.
