Skating with the Stars, Lake Louise, Banff National Park.

We had a flash freeze and for two days the skating at Lake Louise in Banff National Park was the best I had ever experienced. So I was messing around with my new iPhone 11 Max and had a DJI OSMO 2 steady cam/gimbal. Rather than sit on this and do nothing I thought I would lay a track down and add some clips. It is not well done because I am short on time. So without further ado, here is 20 minutes of editing.

gorgeous...please do a version without music and just hearing the sound of the blades on the ice...would love that! :)

@Xmaslightsallyear 3 жыл бұрын

Yes. The lame music is just a big distraction. Natural sound would be so much more engaging.

I used to work at the Lake Louise hotel and someone woke me up at 2:00 AMstaff house and told me to look outside. The northern lights were going crazy and I was alone sitting at the edge of the lake until dawn watching them. It was like a concert light show with the colored lights moving very fast and the air seemed to be crackling. Glad that I didn't meet a bear too. A wonderful memory.

@modtomodern 3 жыл бұрын

@@mariamarano6729 I worked there back in 1980 and the hotel was not open in the winter at all. I saw the northern lights in the late spring and the ground was bare. So due to global warming and covid I expect that you would have to call the hotel and ask when the lake freezes enough to skate on safely. I would not want to crash through the ice in the middle of that lake . Even in the summer it is very cold and you would die in minutes in the deep part. It is very beautiful though.
