Schwatka Lake

This photo was taken close to the southern end of Schwatka Lake in Whitehorse. It was a pretty still day, but I worked to emphasize this by shooting with a ten stop neutral density filter and a long exposure. I shot three images with the focus point moved closer to infinity with each successive shot. These images were then stacked in Photoshop in order to maximize focus from near to far. I also employed a circular polarizing filter to lesssen relfections closer to the camera. The result is an image that respects the moment. This is what I saw from the beautiful clear water up close to the reflected mountain in the distance. I hope you like it.
