What a fantastic color to have accent this image! Those flowers are amazing and are strong enough to stand up to the mountains and sky. A great take on a spectacular view!

Is that the Columbia/Athabaska Glacier? If so, I can't believe how much it has receded. There used to be markers designating where the ice stopped over the years (maybe those are still used, but further away) and in the past one would see those tour buses with huge special tires traversing the glacier ice. Another sign of global warming.

Good point...I was there about 22 years ago and went out on one of those tour buses with the giant tires, was quite a site to see. We were on the glacier and water was running under us and someone saying that water is ice melt from hundreds if not thousands of years ago.The tour guide pointed some hikers out to us that were wayyyyy up on top hiking.

Excellent work. I love that area and have climbed many of the mountains around there, thanks for bringing back many good memories. Ditto sad comments on the receding glacier. I might crop just a tad off the bottom. The lowest flowers look a bit wide angle distorted to me.
