Lucerne Lake

Now the problem with trying to choose one image to define a day is that you downplay the rest of the images of that day. Mt Robson coming out from behind the clouds during breakfast was magnificent, is it any better than this one taken at Lucerne Lake not too long after?

As we drove along the highway to Jasper, the sky began to clear even more to reveal the brilliant azure blue of autumn. The lakes we drove past reflected this perfect blue. Then we came across the reflection in Lucerne Lake. My spirits and hopes reached a high that I believed this was how the rest of the vacation would unfold - crisp beautiful days of blue, gold and white.
