p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Vermillion Lake 2nd Lake - Banff National Park Canada

Well it was a tough Christmas. I have not posted in a while.

My wife got Covid, gave it to me, then our children departed to avoid covid back to Texas, and Laurel's mom died, and then it was 14 days of isolation. I am mostly better but puffing some more while snowshoeing partly because of doing nothing and partly because I am still getting better in the lungs. Even though I had 2 astrazenica and 1 J&J, it was still a week of feeling really bad and taking steroids for the lungs. [Get your vaccine - I can't imagine the extra fun without the vaccine help]

From what I have read - I am now invincible with vaccine and booster and omicron. Here's hoping.

Anyway enough whining. I went out to attempt Water Fowl Lakes and the light did not cooperate. So here is my consolation price. Vermillion Lake.

1-2 of 2

Comments and feedback are appreciated. Scott

Dang Scott! A tough Christmas indeed. Glad you are feeling better and hope you return to full speed soon. All I can say is that you truly live in a beautiful part of the world. And that you have the skills to capture that beauty very well. I'd be happy to hang either one of these on a wall.

Glad you are on the mend, Scott. Nice work on these. I especially like the cleaner foreground and balance of the 2nd.

Scott, what a difficult time for you and your family! Glad you are healing up. Looking forward to a day when we are out of pandemic status.

Glorious images! I have never been to that location but surely want to go after seeing these. I think #2 is my favorite but hard to pick.

Best,
Ros

Gorgeous consolation prizes, Scott! I would be happy with either one of these images. So sorry for your loss and all of your struggles. All of humanity is going through a tough time it seems. Blessings to you and all those you hold dear. Best regards, David.

JimKied: I should have said the positives of Christmas. My youngest son graduated and got a job and my youngest daughter is engaged. So it was not all bad. Banff area and Alberta are beautiful and sometimes I get complacent - good reminder. Thank you for the highest complement - wall hanger. Much appreciated. Scott

junglialoh: Glad you like the presentation. Thank you for the feedback. Much appreciated Scott.

psharvic: Glad you like the 2nd. I need to look at it again and fix the sharpening. Thank you for the feedback. Much appreciated. Scott

arjen_m: Glad you like the shots. It is always fun to stand in the water with snowshoes. Thanks for the feedback. Much appreciated. Scott

Ross Martin: All is getting better. I share your wish for the end of cross border challenges. Having 3 children in a different country is tough and being restricted at home is even tougher. Glad you like 2. Thank you for the feedback. Much appreciated. Scott

Starfire8: Glad you like the consolation. It is a great spot but a lazy spot for me because its so easy to get to and so consistently great. Thank you for your thoughts. Much appreciated. Scott

Yeah such a beautiful location! Beautiful images!!!

BTW, it might be a monitor rez thing but the haloing on the first image is pretty substantial. Did you ever see that freebie on my YouTube page about Dark Mode halo cloning? It is almost miraculous and wipes them out almost instantly, piece of cake! ✌🏼

Glad you are feeling better but take it easy. Mt Rundle, as always, looks so impressive with Vermillion lake in the foreground.

Hope you and your wife feel better soon. Sorry to hear about Laurel’s mom’s passing. May she rest in peace.

Beautiful images.
