Ice Fog
Sunrise on a cold morning at Lake Minnewanka. Banff National Park, Alberta, Canada.
Minnewanka translates as "lake of the water spirit." An old native legend says a warrior standing at the top of a mountain near Banff once saw a fish in the water which appeared to be as long as the lake. And so he called it the "lake of the evil water spirit." From at least the time of the last Ice Age, long before the pyramids were built in Egypt, native people have camped on the shores of Lake Minnewanka.

thank you, I love it here (Canada) but it gets too cold for some people. I took this on October 10, 2009, and it was already -18 degrees celcius. Canadian weather is crazy, but the beauty compensates for the cold (sometimes).Stefan Schwab 16/10/2009 13:52
