The story behind the image

We stayed for two nights in Jasper, Alberta, before we headed for Banff for another couple of nights. Along the route – on the Icefields Parkway – we were mesmerized by Bow Lake. We stopped to admire its beauty and capture a couple of photos.

There was hardly any traffic on the highway so we could enjoy the sound of natural silence.

Personally, I think it can hardly get any better when it comes to mountains in the summer. 🙂
