„Golden Mountain Tarn“

from the gallery of Lee Rentz
Description:

At sunset, the glacial tarns were in deep shade, but the water surface still caught the golden light reflecting off the peaks rising above the cirque. The photograph is a contrast of shade light and sunlight, blue and gold.

I photographed this glacial basin in the basin below Yellow Aster Butte in the North Cascades Mountains of the USA's Washington State. I was taking a backpacking hike over a couple of days, during which I took some favorite landscape photographs, saw a bear cross the trail, and watched an incredibly bright meteor streak across the sky. Magic was in the air!
