Title: Morning Dawn on Two Of Three Sisters
I took this photo in Bend Oregon of two of the three sisters mountain tops early one morning. I grabbed my camera, cup of coffee and then went to the perfect spot to capture this image as the sun was rising. Morning is such a beautiful time of the day, you can get shots during the golden hour just before the sun fully rises. This panoramic landscape shot is highlighting the middle and north sisters mountain tops along the Cascade Range in Oregon.
FYI: The cluster of glaciated stratovolcanoes called the Three Sisters extends for 20 km (12 mi) along the crest of the Cascade Range in Oregon, 35 km (20 mi) west of the city of Bend and 100 km (60 mi) east of Eugene. The broader Sisters reach of the Cascade Arc extends about 40 km (25 mi) north and south of the Three Sisters cluster and contains at least 466 volcanoes of Quaternary age (chiefly the past one million years). Most of these erupted during short time periods (months to years), but many longer-lived mafic shields and stratocones of basalt to andesite are also present. At the latitude of the Three Sisters, the vent belt is about 35 km (22 mi) wide, extending about 12 km (7 mi) west and 22 km (13 mi) east of the Cascade crest. A central area focused on South and Middle Sister is composed of more evolved (andesite to rhyolite) and relatively young volcanic rocks that are surrounded by mafic (basalt to andesite) volcanoes. North Sister is part of this so-called mafic periphery and is almost entirely older than eruptive products of the other two Sisters. Broken Top, also a stratovolcano in the mafic periphery, completely preceded the Three Sisters in time.
Taken with Canon Mark II with a Canon 17-40 lens.
