Spring slowly breaks winters frozen hold on Medicine Lake. While the Maligne River pours into the lake from the south, the lake is actually a geological anomaly as there is no visible exit to the lake. In spring the river cuts a path through the ice across the lake towards the North Western ends abruptly at this pool where it is thought to drain through the soluble limestone rock below. It does not surface again for 16km where Maligne Canyon improbably cuts its way out of the ground. The sinking river system is thought to be one of the largest inaccessible cave systems anywhere in the world. Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada

Boom Lake, looking back toward where the trail ends at the lake. A small scramble over rocks and through the bushes and away from the crowds on a gorgeous day in Banff
Rawson Lake lies about 5km from the parking lot on a well established trail. It is located near the reservoirs in Peter Lougheed Park in SW Alberta, Canada. I paused at the lake in the morning on my way to a viewpoint ridge which overlooks Upper & Lower Kananasksis Lakes. A portion of the ridge is just visible at the upper-right of the panorama.
The panorama is stitched together from four HDR images taken in portrait format.
Lake Lovatnet in Western Norway seems so peaceful here – however it was the place of two major disasters in Norwegian history. In 1905, a huge chunk of the mountain fell into the lake, creating tsunami on a local scale. It killed dozens of people and destroyed the little village on its shore. Gradually, people came back, thinking that the disaster cannot hit the same place twice. They were wrong: 21 years later, it happened again! Still, some people live there now... Have a look at the previous image in my photostream, a memory of the last strike by the mountain troll.
Picture Lake in Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest in Washington. I was chasing the classic photo of Mt Shuksan reflecting in still waters of Picture Lake, but I either got still waters, or I got Mt Shuksan looking good with clouds. On this evening, I was ready to give up and pick up the challenge once again in the morning for the early sunrise. Mt Shuksan was completely blocked by clouds with no signs of clearing. Being on vacation, I convinced myself that giving the weather every opportunity to present me with something nice is what I'm here for. So I stayed, and while Mt Shuksan didn't clear completely, it did present me with an unforgettable memory and a photograph that I like. I'm hoping that you'll like it too. Picture Lake...I will return some day! DSC_3338A

Nothing is more glorious than sunrise. This is of Moraine Lake, Alberta, Canada. It was 35 degrees mid-august, but the shot is worth it.
Adirondacks, NY.
At the other end of the lake, fog hung among the hills when I passed through earlier. From here, it looked like a little cloud factory down there, exhaling smoke into the sky to drift down this way, and catch the light of the just-rising sun in shades of barely pink and barely yellow. The air had that freshly scrubbed clarity that you find after storms blow through, a pleasure to look through and breathe. It will awake soon, and the noise of motorboats and construction will commence, but for now I'll enjoy Brant Lake the way I like it to be.
