A dream to one day travel to Canada became a reality when in 2008 my husband and I undertook a trip of a lifetime to North America. Looking out onto the incredibly beautiful landscape of Lake Louise from the warm interior of the Fairmont Hotel, filled me with a sense of fulfillment and achievement.

I love how the outside is mirrored in the bar top counter giving a leading path to the outside world of natural light.

I took an exposure reading on the lamp which would then give sufficient light to bring in the detail of the exterior landscape.

Lovely shot Barbara, fabulous how you managed to balance the interior and exterior light!
I exposed for the outside expecting the light inside would also be catered for with the reading. Thanks Brian
