Rainbow over Peyto Lake for Laura Swan [Lake Pictures, Bay Pictures, and Pond Pictures]
Uploaded: November 01, 2012 08:19:47
Laura Swan made me promise to capture Peyto Lake. When I arrived it was raining hard. Donned the raincoat walked to best vantage point and waited. Had a brief break with sun that provided a rainbow over and shadow on Peyto Lake. To the mid-right is Mistaya River and Mistaya Lake.
