Mountains, Lakes and Rivers

dpc, if only a photo could do justice. Here's the bigger picture - gotta get that sensor cleaned :-[. Love all the shots that are being posted since as a beginner I've got lots to learn and there is some amazing work being displayed.

Bend in the North Saskatchewan River partially frozen over


I really, really like this picture. Except it reminds me of what is to come. Brrrrrrrrrrrr. Should be used to it by now.
Just think of all those poor souls who haven't had the pleasure of experiencing minus 50, tree trunk splitting, severe frostbite to exposed skin in 30 seconds kind of weather, you are in a privileged minority

Ah, yes indeed! I'm wondering where I stored my boots, heavy duty skidoo pants, mitts, toques, balaclavas, scarves, down-filled parka and the various other paraphernalia that come with the approaching season. And I really do have to buy new 'ice walkers' so I can hike around town on the ice and through the snow with some confidence that I won't take a header.

1. Can't recall the river's name.
2. The Athabasca River


I said it before but say it again: you come isn some amazing places! What a wonderful photos you have posted here. One day will will visit our friends in California but we actually need to plan a travel throughout the States. Actually, I have to plan it. I am sure my wife and children don't have the patience to stop everywhere and wait until I did my shots.

Hi! Yes, there are many beautiful places in the United States. I, however, am Canadian and all my pictures were taken in Canada.

Ha,ha,ha,ha...what a foolish mistake I did. Actually very funny too. Because those friends used to live 6 years in Toronto. I will ask them to move back so I have a double excuse to go there.

Vermilion Lake and backing mountainside near Banff AB.


Very nice!
So, are all those locations in the same area of all over Canada? I have to admit that I didn't look them up on the map.
Your photos put Canada very high on my bucket-list!


There are many lovely areas in Canada. The mountain shots I've posted are all from the Rocky Mountains between Banff and Jasper, Alberta. Western Alberta and pretty much all of British Columbia are mountainous. There are lots of fabulous places to visit.
