Sometimes Beauty Can Be Cold
A long sunrise show blazes amber and orange in its final act from behind Mount Rundle on a very cold winter morning at Vermilion Lakes in Banff, Alberta, Canada.
With the year's first real cold snap hitting us now here in generally temperate North Carolina, it seemed a good time to post a shot from a trip with family last winter to Banff that reminds me of the joy of getting out with the camera even in the coldest weather. This shot is from the same morning as a previous post showing the earlier stages of this stunning sunrise when and pink and reds dominated the skies before giving way to these glorious apricot hues. It may have been -20 C or so, but what a sunrise!
The pool of water in the foreground is one of several small openings in the otherwise frozen expanse, kept ice free by warm springs seeping into shallower areas near the shores of the Vermilion Lakes.
Thanks for visiting!
