Two Jack and Minnewanka Lakes

Two Jack is a small lake, connected with Minnewanka Lake, which is way bigger. Both provide campsites for people to spend the day or night around the lake. The two lakes are situated very close to Banff Town, so our very first sunrise shoot took place in these two lakes. Minnewanka lake was also the place we chose to watch the incredible northern lights dancing in front of us. The cold that night was almost unbearable, but this was one in a lifetime opportunity, so we took the opportunity to photograph it for almost the two hours that it stayed on. A few other people were also at the lake when we arrived, and as soon as the aurora began to dance, the smell of pot started to creep into the air! That is not exactly the experience I was dreaming of, but I suppose that for them it was quite the kick.
