Glacier National Park, Montana

18 mm: ISO 1600: f/16: 15 secs.
My second image from my sunrise shoot at St. Mary Lake. You can see I still had not noticed my ISO was at 1600 from the night before. Even with such a high ISO, I managed to get a 15 second exposure thanks to my Luzid 10-stop ND filter. That filter was so much fun on this trip and I got way better images because of it.
My goal for this image was to combine the reflection of the mountains with the clear water and shallow rocks. I think it came together pretty well. The biggest issue was dealing with the highlights on the left side. Luckily they weren’t completely blown out so I was able to work with them.
