Upper Waterfowl Lake

I have spent my share of time on the either side of the Upper Waterfowl Lake, exploring the trails to Cirque and Chephren Lakes, as well walking up and down Mistaya River.  It's a beautiful area and there is always something to find and come across. I like to get out there before the sunrise, no sound from the road making its way to the lake, just the calls of the various waterfowls I have come across over the years.  And what better way to start the day then to watch the towering peaks front of me light up with the first light of the day. 

Until next moment,

Upper Waterfowl Lake

A beautiful morning at the shore of Upper Waterfowl Lake. I was hoping for more clouds in the sky, but the request was not answered. So I decided to create a panorama from five separate images taken. Afterward I head toward the moose that were in the area.

Until next moment,

Cloudy Morning

There was a mist on the lake, fog in the valley and the sky covered with low clouds. I waited along the shore of the lake, waiting for light to come through. Nearby a Lesser Scaup and its eight chicks kept busy and just beyond them a female Common Merganser with nine juveniles. As I watched them I could hear an Osprey calling out, then got distracted by a Common Loon flying by. A beautiful way to wait for the light to come through for my picture. 

Until next moment,
