I love this picture. The scenery in what we call the North Cascades is spectacular! I grew up under the shadow of Mt. Rainier and the more southerly Cascades, and sometimes I really miss the scenery.
Such a gorgeous nature and photo! And the reflection! It's a long time since I've been here on your blog, I'll sure be back! :)
That looks so inviting.
This is just gorgeous.
Teresa, the area is serene and honey for the soul.
Viola, reflections entrance me.
Leah, think of how the fish would bite with a line flicked in.
Trish and Rob, another magical place in BC.
One can feel the stillness of the area, and thatch patch of fog made it perfect.
Beautiful, just beautiful.
Beautiful photo! Honey for the soul indeed!x
RuneE, those times when the water is so still with a perfect reflection often occur when I don't have a camera at hand.
Richard, when I saw this photo I could almost smell the evergreens in cool, crisp mountain air.
Pam, with honey being a perfect food it fit with the mood of this photo.
Lovely. I just wrote a piece about "reflections" It should be up soon. They do something for me.
more reasons to love our own west!
Wow...What a stunning shot...
I love that fog rolling in, reminds me of Maine here. Beautiful and mysterious all at once.
Beautiful!!! It makes me want to visit.
Breathtaking - such wonderful scenary. Must get to Canada one day soon.
David, fog over water certainly gives a mysterious feel.
Barrie, it's just up the coast from your location.
Mike, the best part of Canada is the west, though I'm biased. The landscapes across the whole of the country is varied from forest to farmland to deserts to lakes and mountains, and further north muskeg, stunted trees and polar ice.
