We hurriedly trotted with our tripods towards Swiftcurrent lakeshore in front of the historic Many Glacier Hotel. The previous night we had setup camp in Many Glacier Campground. There were high hopes about getting a good reflection shot of Grinnell point in the morning on Swiftcurrent lake. However when morning came, the winds made it very clear that they are gonna dance with the waves. So we sat at the shores praying for some good light on the sky and the mountains. Well prayers do sometimes get answered in a not so convenient way (big guy playing pranks on the lesser mortals ?). The rising sun did lite up the clouds that were almost directly above us, and there was no sign of any colors on the clouds that was surrounding the mountains. The mountains however had started getting alpenglow. So to improvise I decided to put on my 16-35mm wide angle, which could drag all that clouds on the top of the sky towards the mountains (squishing it in that process) making up a frame. I also put on my 3Stop hard GND to tone down the sky a bit, considering it was still dark and the lake was devoid of any reflections, thanks to an impertinent wind.
