Natural landscapes: Summer snow
MT. QUADRA GLACIER, BANFF NATIONAL PARK, ALBERTA
Summer afternoon sunshine is rarely a good time to make photographs, but it certainly worked well for this scene, high above Moraine Lake in the Canadian Rocky Mountains.
Once I realized there was a good photo possible, I merely set up the tripod, put on the 70-300 mm. zoom lens, attached a polarizing filter (to cut the glare – very necessary over this long distance) and made pictures.
