0.00001% is just my guesstimate of how many people got to see this scene with their own eyes. Judging by how few people we encountered in the lake that very early morning, I suspect there might be more zeros in actuality.
No one who ever visited the Canadian Rockies could miss the impressive Bow Lake along Icefield Parkway. Those who visited between noon and late afternoon in the sunny days might not notice the rocks' unique textures due to the washout lighting and a not well defined reflection on the water due to the position of the sun and the presence of the wind.
Bus loads and bus loads of tourists were given at most 10 minutes to admire the scenery, we observed the shortest time allocation being 5; not just here but in all the viewpoints in the park.
I wonder when they go back home, would they tell their friends and family that the Canadian Rockies was nothing like what they saw on the travel brochure or photos hung in the gallery.
I'm so glad photography has made me join the 0.00001% club!
Bow Lake in early hours, with Crowfoot Mountain getting the best light.

Our free-styling road trip is still going strong, I am currently parked outside a library, enjoying fast and free Wi-Fi.
Wishing everyone a great day ahead and a wonderful weekend!
