Lake Louise Glow by miketlim

Driving down to Lake Louise from Banff today. Lake Louise is definitely one of my top 3 favourite places to visit in Banff National Park. Hoping for better light tomorrow than I experienced today at sunrise. It was completely overcast in Banff but as they say, tomorrow is a new day. Early morning sun hits the peaks and glacier surrounding Lake Louise in Alberta, Canada. via 500px http://ift.tt/1mFqnKb

Moraine Lake Sunset by miketlim

Keeping with the recent theme.....am on my way to visit Moraine Lake today. Here's another shot from last year. Weather report is looking good for today so I'm definitely excited for some "Moraine Magic". It took a 2nd visit to Moraine to get the glow I wanted in the mountains and tree-line surrounding the lake but I loved the results. Moraine's distinct shade of blue is due to the refraction of light off the rock flour deposited in the lake on a continual basis by the glaciers surrounding it. This photo was manually blended using Photoshop CC from 3 different bracketed exposures. via 500px http://ift.tt/1sEKqLb

Dark Energy by alexnoriega

This is one of a few images I'm pretty stoked about from backpacking around the Northwest this summer: Mount Rainier during a stormy sunset, rising high above passing thunderheads. I shot this with my girlfriend Erin last month. For educational purposes and in the interest of full disclosure, here are the exposures that were needed: one for the sky, one for the land, and two for the lightning strikes (which were necessary as separate exposures at f/4, because the strikes weren't showing up in my base f/16 exposures with all the other light in the scene). If you would like to learn how I achieve the look of my images, you're in luck! I teach my processing workflow and techniques online.

Swiftcurrent Lake - Glacier National Park, MT by jrefuerzo

Swiftcurrent Lake in Glacier National Park. Was there for 4 days with nothing but clouds and rain. Finally on the last morning there the clouds broke for probably 20 minutes allowing me to shoot the lake with a few rays of light breaking through. via 500px http://ift.tt/1qSZDpG
