Moonlight over Mount Rundle

During the tail-end of the full phase of August’s blue moon I went to the edge of the first of the Vermilion Lakes just west of the Banff townsite and set up for a night of long exposures. I drifted in and out of sleep but my timer remote stayed awake and kept running across the dark hours of the night. The clouds raced across the sky under pretty steady winds. With the longer exposures, they were stretched out and occasionally lent a mystical quality to the images.

As it drew closer to the morning, the land started to brighten and one of the last images revealed more of the scenery.

All are amazing but favourite is the second one for the cloud motion and hint of colour on the mountain.

The reflection of the sky on to the mountain is beautiful!
