Twilight's Calm

Uploaded: January 03, 2014

Description

On the outskirts of Banff, in the Banff National Park, Alberta Canada. This is the third of the Vermillion Lakes, the last one on the little road that connects all three. Mt Rundell is the snow-capped mountain in the distance. I used a 10-stop ND filter that allowed for a 60-second exposure, which smoothed out the little waves on the lake, plus gave the clouds more motion.

F10, 60 sec, ISO 100, 17mm wide angle lens

Exif: F Number: 10, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 60/1 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 100, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 17.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 5D Mark III
