Mosquito Creek

About:

Mosquito creek, yes with mosquitoes! But it was already September when I took this, so they weren't a real bother. This shot was not planned at all, that night I wanted to stay at the Lake Louise Campground but the queue was more than 500m long and there was a definite smell of forest fire. I didn't want to queue there so I turned around and drove to Mosquito Creek campground and was tired of driving around so I disciplined myself that evening to take some rest and relax and only shoot picture in walking distance of the camper.

That's how this shot happened.
