Photo Of The Day By Sherry Bell

Today’s Photo Of The Day is “My Nirvana” by Sherry Bell. Location: Banff National Park, Alberta, Canada.

“I left before dawn following the edge of Bow Lake to hopefully capture a great sunrise,” says Bell. “But I wasn’t too hopeful as it was cloudy most everywhere I looked. After some time walking the edge of the lake I noticed sunlight from behind me. I turned and the sky to the left of this scene was clearing. I decided to turn around and head back to the lodge. As I got closer to the lodge, the sun was up and over the mountains to the east while dark clouds hung over the mountains to the west. When I reach this small river flowing into Bow Lake the shade and the light coming through the trees really brought out the light on the lake and mountains.”
