Title: Mirror of the Soul
(September, 2022)
Location: Kootenay National Park (BC, Canada)
Description:
A self portrait taken on day 4 of a multi-day backpacking trek through the mountains. On this particular day, my partner and I woke up in our tent to the calmest and most tranquil morning of our entire expedition. The lake we were camped next to was as still as a mirror, reflecting the awe-inspiring mountains and the warm glow of the sun rising through a mixture of clouds and distant wildfire smoke - all elements coming together to create this otherworldly scene.
Of course, I always pack a dress with me, even on these long multi-day expeditions in the mountains - you just never know when an opportunity like this scene should arise! I walked around the edge of the lake until I found this rock in the water... And if I wasn't fully awake yet that morning, I certainly woke up in that moment as I waded through the freezing lake in 0 degrees Celsius to reach this rock! I suddenly felt more awake and alive than ever, in one of those surreal moments where you almost have to pinch yourself and wonder if it was real.
Mother Nature truly bared her soul in this moment, and I'm so grateful I just happened to be there that morning, mirroring the moment through my camera and immersing myself into it... allowing the soul of nature to become one with my own.
