Photos of the Day: Beauty at Moraine Lake

Moraine Lake is a gorgeous, turquoise coloured lake near Lake Louise.  It’s part of Banff National park and is glacially fed; the rock flour deposits giving its unique hue.  Fun fact: it  was once featured on the back of the Canadian $20 bill.  I spent a lovely Sunday afternoon there during the Heritage day long weekend, complete with a picnic lunch.  Take a look at these shots I was lucky enough to get.

I wish I could say that my name is Cordelia or that I can recite "The Highwayman" from memory or even that I live on Prince Edward Island. While these facts are unfortunately untrue, you can probably tell by now that I am a die-hard Anne of Green Gables fan! My name is Sarena Dharshi and I can say that one of my favourite poems is Tennyson's "The Lady of Shalott" and I have indeed visited Charlottetown, P.E.I. Some other fun facts about me: I attend Western Canada High School, my favourite colour is turquoise and I am a huge Harry Potter fan. I love writing and performing spoken word poetry and I am also a blogger for The Huffington Post.
