Memories of Emerald Lake

Memories of Emerald Lake
Reminded of my travels here in the Canadian Rockies just the other night, I was tempted to release another shot of this magnificent lake. It is seated high in the YoHo national Park and believe me, our two hour stay besides this lake was all too short. The wooden buildings provides some accommodation and food for those lucky enough to stay longer.
Enjoy large.

It was cool Daniela. I think you have scenes almost like this in your beautiful country too -but not quite on this scale. Another scene coming soon.

Such a fantastic view across the lake to those majestic mountains. Brilliantly captured Herb. I especially like the reflections.

Another superb image in the PiP too.........the colour of the water is sublime and the reflections are perfect.

A cracking job on both..!!

Herb Riddle club has replied to Keith Burton club
Keith, we can travel Scotland and then the Alps or other European mountain ranges but when you get to the Rockies, you know you are on an altogether different scale. Thousands of rivers, lakes and peaks with dozens of glaciers thrown in too. This lake from different angles was deep emerald green caused by Glacier powder. One of my other shots here shows the canoes too . A spot never to be forgotten. A landscape photographers paradise indeed. Glad you liked them.

Cheers, Herb

Herb Riddle club has replied to Eva Lewitus club
Yes Eva. In the end, that is what we only have left and even that can be stolen away from us. A beautiful part of the world and a once in a lifetime experience. By the time I did this trip, I knew well the worth of a good camera, lens and a bit of patience.

Herb Riddle club has replied to Roger (Grisly) club
With scenes like this, it is difficult not to get a great shot Roger. It was possible to hire a canoe on here but our stay was far too short for that, it being really a lunch stop. Glad you liked it. ~ Herb

Stunning images Herb. The scenery is breathtaking. I love the perfect reflections and how tranquil it looks.

Herb Riddle club has replied to Ecobird club
Every turn here was stunning Carol. One has to wonder how a country can be so lucky as to have places like this and we are yet again reminded about our lovely planet and the need to keep it going healthily. I am sure they will have a lake somewhere near here called Lake Tranquil :)

Herb Riddle club has replied to tiabunna club
Hi George, indeed they were spectacular. It had almost all gone into the realms of time until being re-kindled on Friday night. I am so happy that we can re-live our past trips via video and photos on our weekly DVD holiday sessions. Sad! you may say but for us sheer happiness! Happy that you joined us with this one.

Cheers, Herb

You cant ever wish for than a shot like this. not unless it had stars over the top but you cant have every thing. I would be over the moon shots like this.

Herb Riddle club has replied to Steve Paxton club
Steve, most people can only dream of ever seeing places like this for real. I know how lucky I am. The original has less contrast but this seemed to look better here on Ipernity. Fortunately, here in the UK, especially in our Lake district and Scotland we have spectacular lake and mountain scenes too. In that, I am doubly blessed. ~ Herb
