Streaking Clouds at Vermilion Lakes

I hurt the sole of my foot the day before by tearing a huge piece of meat off of it. One ruined sock and a boot full of blood later, I am some how able to walk around. I didn’t want to chance it by hiking around though. So we parked by the Vermilion Lakes just outside of Banff for sunset.

The sunset never came around, but the last rays of light hitting on the mountains are still pretty. I went with a 2-minute exposure to get some movements in the clouds. You can see how strong the winds were blowing at the peak of the mountain.

If you attempt to shoot by the Vermillion Lakes, remember to bring bug spray and don’t wear black. The mosquitoes swarm by the hundreds. It was pretty disturbing. The guy next to me had black pants on. There were probably 20~30 mosquitoes clinging on to him. I thought he was going to get sucked dry.
