Always loved the name. Any lake in america is pretty suspect. I live in detroit, work once a week in chicago, lake and cook counties. Some pretty amazing polution there, as well. Was the most polluted region in America until G.W. Bush became governor of Texas. In less than a year Chicago's steel harbor wasn't nearly so toxic as Texas. Now, the entire country is going that route. Mercury levels in the great lakes region are rising incredibly fast. 20 percent of the world's fresh water, why bother protecting it?
Lakes in Montana are pure :) But your sunset is fantastic! Nice
Wonderful image! It certainly is a sight for sore eyes.
How sad. It is a very beautiful area. I was just studying up on mercury poisoning last week, and what it does to people. It is so horrible.
wonderful and peacefull image. !!!!!! #:O) !!!!!!!!!!
Yes I guess it is both beautifil and ironic, however things are seldome what they seem, many rivers here no longer have salmon for the same reason. Whatever way you look at it this is a lovely image with wonderful colours and contrast.
Hard to believe...Fabulous photo tho, the colors are beautiful
Beautiful sunset...it's inevitable things like this are going to happen, be it man's fault or the changes in global climate! Nature will, one day, just shrug us off as a nuisance & start over anew, just as it has done before!!! Peace!!!! :)
terrible... but the shot is fantastic!! :]
Very lovely image ! Too bad it is so polluted, but in this shot it looks quite nice :D

Nice mood Bruce! did you use the multi atmo plug in for the sky ? oops! you mean this world is planet earth that great polluted one :-(
Weird how even polluted areas still can show such a beauty! Nevertheless it's a beautiful shot and once again emphasizing the need for protection!
Wonderful sunset! But you don't increase upcoming romantic feelings by telling us about pollution there...

Beauty can be deceiving! Gotta agree with PapaGuru.
