Natural landscape: the beauty of a desolate landscape

FROZEN LAKE ATHABASCA SHORELINE,
FORT CHIPEWYAN, ALBERTA
The temperature was a mind-numbing -25c, but I wasn’t going to let that stop me from photographing the beautiful landscapes of this northern Alberta village.
I wore long underwear, two pairs of gloves, a giant parka and my Calgary Stampeders toque. At one point, I still had to duck into the community’s historical museum just to warm up. But, as you can see, the effort was absolutely worth it! 🙂
Nikon D7100, Sigma 17-70-mm zoom lens, tripod, graduated density (darkening) filter on the sky

Beautiful photo, Frank, I like the light in all the different colors on the snow. But oh my goodness…brrr…brrr…brrr!!
