Canada Road to Lake Moraine

Please log in or sign up for free to see the GPS coordinates & weather for this photo spot

As Moraine Lake itself is so beautiful and popular to photograph, the road leading to the lake is often overlooked. The windy road towards the impressive mountain range can be used as a perfect leading line.

Photography Tips

A slight tele focal length would come in handy to compress the foreground and background a little more to make the mountains appear as big as they appear in real life. The focal length most similar to the human eye probably is 50mm.
