Shafts of sunlight (technically called crepuscular rays) captured on a partly cloudy day over the peaks of the Continental Divide and the glacier-fed Athabasca River. This was from the Goats and Glaciers Viewpoint on the Icefields Parkway in Jasper National Park on a mid-October day. This is a single hand-held exposure with the RF15-35mm lens at 28mm on the Canon R5. Enhancements added with Radiant Photo, Luminar Neo and ON1 Effects.
Mount Cephren at Lower Waterfowl Lake, in the light of the low waning Moon lighting the peaks but not the foreground. This is from the lakeside viewpoint on the Icefields Parkway in Banff National Park, Alberta. I shot this on a very clear night October 13, 2022. There was enough wind to ripple the water and blur any stellar reflections. The Milky Way is to the left of Cephren, but is being lost in the brightening moonlit sky. This is a blend of 5 x 20-second exposures stacked for the ground to smooth noise, and a single 20-second exposure for the sky, all with the Canon RF15-35mm lens at f/2.8 and Canon R5 at ISO 1600. All were untracked camera-on-tripod shots. ON1 NoNoise AI applied to the single sky image for noise reduction. A mild Orton glow added with Luminar AI.
