My brother and I were travelling along Hwy 93 North in Banff National Park, Alberta. Ahead of us was Bow Summit. We pulled over,off the road. I set up my tripod and camera. So I had the snow covered mountains , open scrub land and highway 93. Thus the composition I created is what you see above. The two cars give you the perspective of the mountain height.
I would like to take this time to thank everyone for joining me on Linkedin. By sharing my photographic work, It is my desire to show that Canada is a beautiful country. It only takes a moment in our busy lives to stop and observe our surroundings. There is beauty everywhere.
From my family to your family, Happy New Year. Please be safe

The Rocky Mountains took shape during an intense period of plate tectonic activity that resulted in much of the rugged landscape of western Canada A close look at the structure of the mountain will show you the layers of sedimentary rock that created this mountain. The Canadian Rockies are composed of layered sedimentary rock such as limestone and shale.

I have developed a never ending fascinating for the grandeur of Banff National Park, Alberta, The town of Banff. the mountain scenery, Lake Louise. It is all spell binding.
It was a cloudy morning on the shores of Lake Minniwanka Banff National Park. The lake water was not calm. I looked across to the far shore. The above composition caught my eye. I love the variation of the line patterns that can be seen. The dark shadows in the foreground to the ruggedness of the landscape create a unique composition.
A short drive from Kimberly, BC brought us to St. Mary’s Lake. A beautiful little lake. Mountains all around. My brother Bob and I spent a couple hours here as I proceeded to photograph.
Bob and I drove to Marysville, BC to photograph a small waterfalls. It is located on Mark Creek. It is just a short walk on a boardwalk path. Marysville Falls is a 30 meter waterfalls.
We did not spend much time here. The rain came, so I quickly captured the above scene.

AS we drove through Kootenay National Park, my brother Bob stopped at Simpson Monument. I instantly fell in love with this location. The mountain slopes show the remains of a forest fire from the past.
I discovered this little bay off of Lake Minniwanka. There was a point of land with some color. The lake water was quieting down a bit, so their was some reflection available.The towering mountains in the background
