blue in mist

I guess thansands of pictures have been taken for Peyto Lake at this

particular point. Yet I want to share with you something a little bit

different. The road to the lake was closed when I was there. Part of

the road was covered by snow and ice. I have to hike uphill half an

hour to get to this viewpoint. It was raining and cold. Then I was

totally astonished by the sheer beauty and peace. The photo conveys

only a tiny fraction of the scene.

I really appreciate the different take on this well-photographed location. This is, as you mention, very beautiful and peaceful. To me this is the essence of photography: sure you weren't there on a brilliant, blue-sky sunny day like everyone else, but you were there to capture the scene in your own, unique moment.

Well composed.

Thanks for commenting on it.

Very aesthetic, great landscape. It was a good idea to hike at this point, and the mist makes the shot for me (bad weather, good photo...)
