Kootenay Reflections

DSC08350.jpeg

The best part of this hike was the incredible reflections bouncing off the lake. The conditions were nearly perfect for this. Zero wind, and mostly sunny skies, although a bit of smoke in the air from distant forest fires. This here lake is called Yankee lake, and it is one of three lakes we hit during this loop hike. Wonderful it was. I’d rate this hike as an 8/10, relatively easy and lots of photo ops, which I especially like as you know. Have you had a chance to do some any great hikes this summer yet? Thanks for stopping by.

The clouds came out perfectly on the water! It's as if they were in the water and not in the sky!

No really great hikes, kid too small still

Not always easy to take smaller kids with on the trails -- wait a couple of years!

The first image looks perfect, sky and earth merging in the reflection of crystal clear water.

Black and white photos indeed have their own beauty, but these scenes of nature look most captivating in their true colours. 🍀😊

Wow! Fantastic use of reflections in every photo @daveks friend!... There is a lot of abstraction well harnessed in each one!

This reflections are awesome indeed! I haven't been able to go on good hikes this year yet. Only a couple of visits to some beaches, but no forest yet. And your photos have me itching to get out for some proper hiking now...lol.

Those first two are absolutely perfect! I love the reflected cloud in the second one, what great reflections on the emerald water. Great job!

The photos are incredible, I loved them. The photos with reflections in the water are special because they leave a dazzling impression.
