Rocky Calm

taken on a recent trip into Mt. Assiniboine PP. spent the morning of

my birthday photographing the classic reflection of this majestic

mountain. all thoughts, comments and opinions are greatly

appreciated.

Beautiful scene. Great use of all the basics - lighting, DOF, composition.

A perfect image, lighting and cropping, you made everything work for you. Make postcards and prints of this scene and you will sell millions! Paul

beautiful

wonderful foreground holding the picture together. Contrast is a bit light on the mountains.

Great place. Perfect composition. I think it's one of the best landscapes I have seen in last days. Congratulations

How did you get there,Andrew.

The only access to here are either Hiking or helicopter, we just don't have time to do it this time(my first rockie trip), how long did it take you to be there? probably do it next time.

 

Regards

thanks to all!

 

Andrew - i accessed this incredible area by hiking in 27 km from Sunshine Village. spent 1 night on the way in, 2 there, then out 26 km the last day via a different route. simply amazing scenery. well worth it. as for your other comment on mountain camping, i actually camped at the base of the mountain, got an 'alpine start' and was hiking by 3am to get that high before sunrise. incredible experience. thanks.

Truly spectacular scenery, beautifully portrayed. My suggestion would be to lower the mid-to-high levels in the top and bottom regions of the image a little to better match them to the middle of the image. Maybe dropping the blue midtones just marginally over the entire image is worth a try too? Sounds like an amazing experience.
