Photographer's Note
On a clowded day I drove from Jasper to Maligne Lake to see the famous spirit island. On the way there you pass Medicine Lake. The light there was fantastic and I walk almoust two hours around an had the chance to take some great picutres. The contrast and the Reflections on the water were great there. During the summer the lake is flooded by melting glacier water and in winter the lake disappears, becoming a mudflat with scattered pools of water connected by a stream.
The water drains out through sinkholes in the bottom and in spring the circle begins again.

Very nice detail you've captured, especially on the mountains in the background. Maybe a little more color in the scene would really make this shot nice, though it looks like the lighting may have been less than ideal for picking up color. Thanks for sharing!

Hi Andreas
Very nicely done. You have taken the shot in perfect time. I liked the way you took the shot of reflection over water.

Salut Andreas
I think maybe you were caught in the rain but nonetheless an impressive shot. Beautiful light, depth and detail.
Well done

Andreas,
You must have posted this shot on the day no-one else decided to use TE!
The scene is fantastic and you've made an excellent and powerful composition, showing tiny detail and the great grandeur beyond, yet all as one, the near foreground completely refelcting the far mountains, as the mid ground reflects itself. But you know all this anyway, you're the photographer!!!
I came across a theme the other day "under appreciated photos". Very much where this one belongs.
Best regards
Colin
