Description
Edit: stoked at my fifth Daily Deviation. Thank you so much (Anoya) for featuring me, and (TimberClipse), (BokehLight), and (Miguel-Santos) for suggesting the image for a Daily Deviation.One of my favourite places in New Zealand, is beautiful Lake Matheson.
On favourable mornings, the reward for your early morning hiking aspirations is a crystal clear and calm lake offering pristine reflections of the alpine spectacle before your eyes.
Not the most conducive cloud cover formation for a landscape image (covering Mount Cook wholesale), but, after a failed attempt the morning prior, I was thankful for the fire in the sky this second morning's attempt.
This is an image from my spring 2011 campaign of the South Island.
Canon EOS-5D Mark II, Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM

Photography truly is about timing and being in the right place at the right time with a camera (and sometimes a tripod.)Β Fantastic image.
I hope you make it into a print.

There's just something about mountains that always adds a sense of stability and strength in a picture. My favorite parts would have to be the reflection and the fog in the back; they add a certain air of mystery that's somehow both alluring and intimidating--like some unseen forceΒ urging me to discover its secrets...
