Natural Landscapes: Waterton sunrise
WINDY SUNRISE, WATERTON LAKES NATIONAL PARK, ALBERTA
This park, in the deep southwest of Alberta, is a glorious place to experience the Canadian Rocky Mountains – if you can stand the wind. This is one of the windiest places in western Canada; that’s why you can see all the whitecaps on the lake, even though I made this photograph just a half hour after sunrise, when (in most other places) the wind hasn’t yet picked up. Indeed. it was all I could do to battle the wind and keep the tripod still for this photograph. Fabulous sky, eh? Nikon D90, polarizing filter.

I really like this Frank, especially how the trees point towards the end of the lake and seem to invite the explore to venture beyond
Well done!
Thanks, pal!
Beautiful shot, Frank!!
