Sawtooth Mountains of Idaho

Upper Bench Lake morning reflection first snow

In the Sawtooth mountains above Redfish lake there are a series of pools of water called Bench lakes. Each one has its own look ever changing with the peaks towering behind. In this shot I worked on framing the reflecting of Heyburn and the rocks at the bottom of the lake that were once on the peak before tumbling down. Halo shoreline with the perfect mirror reflection making a perfect copy of the world above.
