WATER COLOURS
By Prapti
#Emerald Lake is
the Largest lake in Yoho National Park-its water takes on a turquoise colour
caused by limestone sediment.
“One of the aims of our trip driving through British Columbia was to try
to find the beautiful turquoise lake in the Rockies that I remembered from a
childhood holiday more than 35 years ago. We looked high and low for it. I am
not really sure that Emerald Lake was the place I remembered in the end, but it
did impress us with its vivid colour, mesmerising reflections and forest walks.
Before the crowds descended, I found the right spot down on the edge of the
lake to capture my shot. For me, this photo encapsulates the laid-back, great
outdoors thrill and beauty of a Canadian holiday, with lake and forest just
begging to be explored. I am reminded of both journeys to Canada, the same yet
different; one with the freshness and novelty of youth, the other more appreciative
of the beauty of the landscape.” David
McTernan went to Canada with his wife and took almost the same trip as he
did with his parents.
