Natural landscapes: when autumn looks like winter
AUTUMN MORNING AT CASCADE POND, BANFF NATIONAL PARK, ALBERTA
I drove into this Canadian national park hoping to photograph autumn colours, but was greeted by scenes like this. I was quite happy to adjust my plans, spending an hour at this charming pond finding many picture possibilities. Normally, you would see peaks along the horizon, but the clouds hung so low that I barely saw one mountain during my time in the park.

Brrr – winter already. The absence of the far horizon, I suspect, really helps to isolate this scene. You found a very attractive composition Frank.
