Looking down from Sulphur mountain at the Bow River as it flows thru beautiful Banff. Never get weary of this view.
Wishing my fellow Americans a Happy Memorial Day.
And all my other dear friends a wonderful Sunday.

Morning glory at Banff's Two Jack Lake with the sun's early rays lighting up Mt. Rundle.
Located on the Minnewanka Loop. Two Jack Lake lies between Johnson Lake and the largest man made lake in the park, Minnewanka, It was named after Jack Stanley, who operated a boat concession on lake Minnewanka at one time, and Jack Watters, who worked for the mines in Bankhead, a town which flourished at the base of Cascade Mountain just after the turn of the century. While their precise relationship is uncertain, the pair must have frequented the shore of the waters which were named after them. In any given season, a drive along the loop past Johnson, Two Jack and Lake Minnewanka is sure to make a lasting impression.
Enjoy a wonderful Sunday evening and week ahead!

Smiles galore this dawn as the sun kissed Mt. Rundle in the distance over Two Jack Lake.
I love the benefit we photogs enjoy as we can step right back into the image and savor the moment, the setting, the sounds and smells with the friends we experienced it with, or even when alone. What a great hobby/passion/addiction.
Thanks for taking a look and for any comments, faves and suggestions.
Enjoy a wonderful Sunday and week ahead!

Mistaya river whispers it's sweet song as it rushes bye.
Been absent lately as life took control of my reins, pulling me in other directions. Glad to return to flickr and catch up with you and your beautiful images.
Have a wonderful Wednesday.

A small slice looking N of this Highway to Heaven. Spectacular, unforgettable beauty along the 230 km (140 mi) route.
"The Icefields Parkway, also known as Highway 93 north, is a scenic road in Alberta, Canada. It parallels the Continental Divide, traversing the rugged landscape of the Canadian Rockies, travelling through Banff National Park and Jasper National Park. It links Lake Louise with Jasper to the north.
The Parkway was completed in 1940. It is named for features such as the Columbia Icefield, visible from the parkway."
