As a new day dawns, the sun lifts over the rugged spine of the Rocky Mountains, casting a warm, amber glow across the still waters of Lake Minnewanka in Banff National Park, Alberta, revealing the quiet grandeur of the mountains as it gently awakens the shoreline.

Wow. what a shot Clifford. You choose just the right darkness for me. I love the vibe it gives. You made a beautyful framing of that landscape. Special mention to the white line that underline the mountains and the angle you choose to have that big reflection of the sun. Great job.
