Lake Louise on a super cloudy, windy and chilly late afternoon...
Very crowded out there, this was the best I could get of the iconic boathouse without too many people in the shot. I had to frame and shoot fast as there was a guy about to step onto "my" rocks! 😊
Two wedding parties were there having their photos taken; oh man, did I feel sorry for the chilly brides!
0.5 sec, handheld, my attempt to smooth out the water somewhat as it's quite windy.

The historic Curly Phillips Boathouse floating nicely below Leah Peak on a windy day. Taken on last day of the season at Maligne Lake.
The highlight of any visit here is to take a cruise to iconic Spirit Island. Shown below.
Have a most wonderful weekend!
The lads at work were keen on Mount Keen (which I did a few weeks ago), so here we are again, cycling up Glen Tanar to get there. The weather is perfect as shown by these reflections in Trout Loch.
Mount Keen is my 11th Munro and this is my second time of climbing it. It is the most easterly of all the Munros and stands at 939 Meters (3080 feet), forming an almost perfect cone. A 7 mile cycle up Glen Tanar gets us to the foot of the 2 mile ascent up the mountain.
This boathouse on Ullswater is one of the most photographed places in the Lake District. Whoever is staying there (it is a holiday accommodation) has to get used to being in the public eye every day :) - excuse the million and one midgets on the water
Synonymous with the Dandenong Ranges, The Alfred Nicholas Gardens are known for their picturesque waterfalls, water features and its iconic ornamental lake and boathouse.
Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.

The historic Curly Phillips Boathouse floating nicely below Leah Peak on a windy day. Taken on last day of the season at Maligne Lake.
"Donald Nelson "Curly" Phillips was a Canadian guide, outfitter, entrepreneur, and explorer who was a part of many pioneering expeditions in the northern Canadian Rockies in the early twentieth century. He settled in Jasper, Alberta, and was involved in the development of mountain tourism in the region.
He built the historic boathouse in 1928 to accommodate the guests of his hunting and fishing trips. To boost his business, he raised the Maligne Lake rainbow trout, which he transported in barrels to Maligne Lake. Until his sudden death in an avalanche in 1936, he lived and dwelt in the boat house, which is now run by the Maligne Lake Tours." Wiki
Have a fabulous Friday and wonderful weekend!
Following the easing of Covid restrictions, we stayed up in Grasmere for a few days, during which i paid an early morning visit to the lake and captured this shot of the boathouse, using the High Res Mode in my Olympus.

A Misty Boathouse
The Duke of Portland Boathouse on Ullswater, one of the most photographed locations in the Lake District.
I pass this boathouse so often, you always look and say to yourself how beautiful it looks in the right light but tend not to stop. This morning Ullswater had a good bit of misty hanging around and I could not help myself and just had to stop, waders on and in I went;)
Please feel free to share with your friends and family should you wish:) enjoy;)

The boathouse used to belong to the 3rd Duke of Portland (1738-1809) but unfortunately he got into a dispute with Sir James Lowther over gambling debts and had to sell it. It's now rented out as a holiday home.
Returning home from my recent day in The Lake District, I couldn't resist stopping off at Pooley Bridge. The light wasn't too good but it's always worth a visit.
Just for comparison purposes (see my last photo), this is a picture of a boathouse that was not well cared for. This is why boathouses can no longer be built on the waterways. They hinder the beautiful view of the river and become hazards to boaters. Storms strip the shelters of their boards, which can float down the river and be hit by a boat. They do provide places for Ospreys to build their nests though.
This old boathouse is located on the Rappahannock River in Lancaster County, Virginia.
