Found this old shot from a good few years ago! And a very very old camera too!
This is the aptly-named Emerald Lake in Yoho national park in British Columbia in Canada. It really is that green too!
Emerald Lake is in the Yoho National Park, British Columbia, Canada. It is one of the most beautiful lakes in the world. Its emerald color of water is incredible. (edited with Lightroom and Topaz)
A beautiful green hue truly reflects this lake’s name. The colour gets very intense in the summer, and Mount Burgess complements the backdrop. What a perfect scenario it is to visit the Cilantro restaurant located across the bridge and enjoy a drink while taking in views of the lake. Emerald Lake is the largest lake in Yoho National Park, BC, maybe 20 minutes of Lake Louise. This is a different shot, from a different angle, and I love it, hope you do too.
Enjoy it!
Thanks for your visits and comments. As always, appreciated very much!

“Emerald Eyes”. One usually doesn’t think of the Double Crested Cormorant as a beautiful animal, but in the world of birds these emerald green eyes are hard to beat. There are few other animals that have such eyes. This image of of a female is preening at sunset. The sun hitting the eyes brings out the sparkling gems.

We got to the polygonal lakes. They are called polygonal because of the peculiarity of the bottom soil, which forms geometrically regular polygons during freezing. It was raining as usual. The color of the water was simply mesmerizing, so I ran around these lakes and took pictures, despite the slight inconvenience of rain
Wikipedia: Papilio palinurus, the emerald swallowtail, emerald peacock, or green-banded peacock, is a butterfly of the genus Papilio of the family Papilionidae. It is native to Southeast Asia, but is regularly kept in butterfly houses around the world.
The iridescent green sheen of the bands of this butterfly is not produced by pigments, but is structural coloration produced by the microstructure of the wing scales. They refract the light and give rise to blue and yellow visible reflections, producing the perception of green color when additively mixed.

It was a misty morning at Lake Wenatchee. Couldn't even see the water line, but made for nice viewing of the island!

A sunny, clouds and raining alternately day, hiking around Emerald Lake for 5 kms. Due to raining, the trail was very muddy, slippery and uneven portions along the lake path, but worth walking along it. Lots of photo opportunities as you wandered along with the lake one side and mountains on the other, the mountains was like on a fire!
