Low Clouds

Just back from Maine. While it wasn’t a photography rich trip as the weather did not cooperate for most of the week, it is always good to travel with good friends. I was able to get a few decent shots that I hope to post shortly.

For now, we revisit one of my favorite places: Johnson Lake in Banff National Park. The weather had been a bit overcast and was starting to clear. By the time I got to the lake, all that was left of the overcast skies were a few low clouds covering the mountain tops. The lake is a destination for families to have a nice, easy hike with a nice view of Cascade Mountain. Picnickers, hikers, sunbathers, fishermen, and swimmers congregate here during the summer months. The lake is also part of Banff’s Minnewanka Loop.

  1. Welcome back Len. Love this shot Len, great reflection. I’ve been to Johnson Lake and on that day it was very overcast. Good to see what I could have seen on a clear sunny day!

  13. That cloud is a scene winner and the reflections double it. Reminds me of a great 3week dash around BC that I did in 1990s
