Natural landscapes: the amazing sunrise reflection
DAWN LIGHT ON THE RIDGE, WATERTON LAKES NATIONAL PARK, ALBERTA
This pond was beside the road I was traveling and I stopped to investigate creative possibilities. As you can see, those possibilities were downright breathtaking. I actually photographed this scene twice, coming back a second time as the first light of day strengthened and increased the contrast and colour. There was just enough clouds to block the sun from hitting the peak behind the ridge, a key requirement to make this scene truly compelling.
Nikon D7100, tripod, graduated density (darkening) filter on the sky.
