The Bow River, Banff

Sometimes it is nice to be reminded of different places and experiences. Its May 2016 and I am back here on the outskirts of the city of Banff, Alberta, Canada, standing on the bank of this magnificent river. You can see deep into the clear water and smell the scent of pine. Not far from where I am standing, high on a hill overlooking the river is the famous ‘Fairmont Banff Springs’ chateau hotel with the Bow Falls just some short distance behind me. See PiP

Herb Riddle replied to TOZ:

Yes, a lot different from the Dales and our Scotland/Wales mountains. this is big country where when strolling you are likely to come across bear, wolfs and snakes.

Cheers. Herb

Great to see another couple of shot from your previous travels Herb..........you certainly get around!

I love your composition and perspective here..........and the rocks make great foreground interests and also nice leading lines. The landscape is gorgeous with its tall trees and cliffs and the distant peaks make a magnificent backdrop.

An impressive set of falls in the PiP too. Superb work!
