Herbert Lake
When you turn north from Lake Louise on the Icefields Parkway one of the first turnoffs is to the lesser known Herbert Lake. This little gem is a great spot.

Flame Over Fog
There are parts of Vermillion Lakes that are open in the winter, due to a warm spring feeding the lake water. When the thermometer drops, the mist rises off of the water. The clouds are lit by the setting sun and have turned a brilliant red/orange. It doesn’t matter when I visit Banff National Park, I always find something great to photograph.

Frozen Moon
The moon looks down on us, and sometimes it looks back up. The moon is reflected in the ice at Vermillion Lakes in Banff National Park. After the sun dips below the mountain tops, everything takes on a blue cast.

Herbert Lake
Herbert Lake is one of the lesser known lakes in the Canadian Rockies. It’s a small lake that’s nestled in a small valley that’s a bit protected from the winds in the area. Usually, it’s one of my first stops after I enter the Icefields Parkway from the south at Lake Louise.

Glenmore Evening
In the tradition of The Best Camera Is The One You Have With You, and to debunk the myths that you can’t take great pictures with a point and shoot, or that city shots have to be of buildings and people on the street, here’s my city shot this week. I shot this with my aging Nikon Coolpix P6000 (which turns 6 years old next month) from the NW parking structure at Rockyview General Hospital in Calgary. I aligned the sun with the tree to cut down on the brightness from the sun, so that the dark areas on the far shore might have some detail.
