Absolutely stunning! I've been to Bow Lake a couple of times and seen many images of it, but never one to better this.
Colours are incredible. It's pin sharp from front to back. Lovely broken reflection picking up the highlights from the mountains.
The sloping shoreline is disappointing as it does detract from a wonderful image.

Great colours here, and the 2 stones really make the composition interesting. I love the patchy sunlight on the rock face and lake, it breathes life into the image. I do agree with keitht about the far shoreline being a little sloping, it makes the whole image feel not quite right, but I think I am a little hypersensitive to this.
A beautiful image
cheers, David

Very nice shot, The wxarm light make the colors golden, intense. I love the contrast between transparent waters and the strong rock. It's very well done

Derrald I have seen alot of photos on TE for the last two years, but I am hard pressed to say I have seen any photos that can surpass the image quality and light capture your posting here. An amazing setting with perfect timing for the morning light. I am looking at getting a ND filter. Is your Singh-Ray 2 stop a good suggestion for landscape photography? Thanks for the wonderful capture! Outstanding work!

The lighting and the color here are phenomenal! I agree about the sloping shoreline, but other than that it's just about a perfect picture. Great job!
