After dinner, I brave the cold to drive a few miles from the resort onto Maligne Lake Road to take this photo of the sky. Having turned off the engine and lights, it was really, really dark and really, really quiet. It was also still really, really cold. So I decided to stay in the car, wind the window down and just balance the camera on the door.

For the technically minded, this photo was taken using a 30 second shutter at f/2.8 and ISO-1600. I managed to fire off about half-a-dozen of these long exposure shots before my hands had gone sufficiently numb that I decided to call it a day and head back to the hotel. However, as is often the way, the first one was the best one.
