Avalanche Lake

[Kyle Jones]

I hiked out to avalanche lake in Glacier a few mornings ago. It was my first time out there. The ubiquitous smoke was fairly light and added some atmosphere. In the morning light, I felt like the "normal" direction of shooting toward the mountain and falls at the end of the lake didn't work. I tried this instead, shooting the other way.

Any thoughts are welcome.

Whatever reason you had for turning around, I like the results.

Neat looking little lake and some excellent conditions for reflections. A little haze is visible but not horrible by any means.

The texture of the rocks in the water really add to the reflection!

Very cool Kyle, I like your choice of direction there.

Kyle,

really like this - proof that every image does not have to be pushing the boundaries of the camera's dynamic range to be a very pleasing landscape image. Reflections of the greens in the water interacting with the green color of the lake perhaps, makes for a very interesting image, and as usual, the composition is spot on from my perspective.

That is a nice view Kyle.
