Sandspit

Here's another one from the recently processed batch of color negative film.  This is Abraham Reservoir just west of our cottage in Nordegg.  The mountain across the lake is called Wapta Kista.  Mt. Michener is just to the right [west] of this view.  I shot this with my 4x5 view camera on Kodak Ektar 100 film.  It was taken in early May of 2020.  The girls were living out at the cottage at that time, due to the first wave of the Covid pandemic.  I was still working at the time and was staying in the city, and coming out on the weekends.  The reservoir is at about it lowest level at this time of year.  The dam is opened and the water is drained over the winter months.  Then the dam is closed in June to capture the spring run off and refill the lake.
