Canada is full of breathtaking vistas and Alberta is no exception. This shot was taken while staying at a lodge at the foot of the Bow Glacier in Banff, Alberta. It is a perfect example as to why it pays to get up early as a photographer. The mist on the lake, the sun hitting the peak and the deep morning shadows combine to give you the feeling of what it was like that morning.
While paddling Dave commented on what an “Authentic Canadian Moment” we were having – Canoeing in the Rocky’s on the majestic Lake Louise. He managed to take some great views of the Glacier from a different angle than what others were stuck with being in front of the Chateau Fairmont. Also, looking back towards the hotel was quite beautiful and having the structure in front of the hills and forests gave a great perspective of just how large the land is.
Alberta is home to simply the most beautiful mountain range we have ever seen on the planet. Driving north from Calgary towards the Rocky Mountain range was breathtaking. We could only come up with one word over and over. Another writer on the drive Chris, used the word Dramatic to describe the drive while we were eating dinner the first night and he was right. Once those rocky mountains appeared we just couldn’t get the word “dramatic” out of our heads.
