The Western Tour 2009-2011

An urge to go west "young man".. Alberta and British Columbia: Mountains and Waterfalls
Currently more or less in random order, but am working to place in chronologic sequence and finish filling out the portfolio. Start viewing the picture in the "large" format. If the picture is a panorama and much wider than high, there should be an instruction to click on the "original size". That will give better viewing. At times there are variants of the picture, usually to a high contrast Black & White ala Ansell Adams. Please comment on the pictures (like or hate).

For about a week I wandered through the Rocky Mountains in Alberta and British Columbia. What I learned from this is that going on a set time frame does not allow for more spontaneous photography but rather limits the extent of the images.
2009 Western Tour
For about a week I wandered through the Rocky Mountains in Alberta and British Columbia. What I learned from this is that going on a set time frame does not allow for more spontaneous photography but rather limits the extent of the images. The first of the panoramas I photographed in the journey through the mountains.  Castle mountain on the left Through to Mt. Ishbel on the right. Eisenhower Peak is the right most peak making up Castle Mountain.  The Bow river is in the foreground.Best viewed on  Original Size
