Posts Tagged ‘ice bubbles’


Unseasonably warm weather marked my excursion to the ice bubbles of Lake Abraham. Temperatures in the forties and fifties were quickly degrading the quality of the ice and bubbles. It did however create the lovely conditions of pockets of surface meltwater pools, and textured riffles across the lake.

On this particular evening, we started with flat gray clouds and little hope of a good sunset. Once it became clear that the light was going to go off, I was frantically looking for a good foreground to capture the moment I was seeing. Best night on the lake for me.

As the sun rose and filled the mountain ranges with golden light, I hurriedly positioned myself to capture the alpen glow. It came in fast and stayed for a short while. I was left with these cluster of bubbles and framed my scene leading towards the golden mountains.

Here are some of the few Canadian bubbles in the rockies taken at Belly of Abraham in Nordegg Alberta. Capturing bubbles is very unique. You basically lay down and swim on the ice. A hard work fun thing but very rewarding. Its not easy to captured them in term of very strong wind gust and temperature below zero.

FIRE BUBBLES | Belly of Abraham, Nordegg Alberta

My last sunrise on Abraham lake, we were gifted with this fiery sunrise despite strong wind gust. It is one of the most surreal experience to walk on the lake and see thousands of bubbles in the surface. The three days in Nordegg provided us with the best conditions and light. Hope to share more from the adventure soon.
