Canadian Rockies (lots of pics)
Updated 10/9 12:15 AM: edited some of the images for crop, perspective and color balance; added a couple from Larch Valley and elsewhere.

Was supposed to do a heli backpacking trip in the Canadian Rockies that got canceled, so I spent 10 days there on my own. I normally don't post my work in forums but this trip was such an outlier in terms of wealth of atypical opportunities and wonderful weather. I literally have 3x-5x more keepers than I would expect from such a trip. Enjoy or ignore, as you see fit

You can see the full sized pics here (the first 30 or so images in the folder)

[center]On the way to Mt. Smutwood[/center]
Everyone was going for the instagram pic at the top, but the real beauty was halfway up. There is ZERO cloning work in this. Both the raven and hiker were in a single frame.






[center]Coming out of the flat portion of the Smutwood hike[/center]






[center]Larch Valley[/center]
The weather was lousy most of the day, but opened up late afternoon. Not sure why people shoot this location in the morning and mid-day. The sun is in the wrong position and the light is horrible.











[center]More peaks coming out of the fog than I care to count[/center]


























[center]Reflections and more reflections[/center]
















This is why I don't particularly care about the Canadian Rockies outside of winter and the last week of September - green trees on gray background. Even when it looks pretty to your eyes the pictures turn out dull











[center]Yellow and orange everywhere you look, not just Larch Valley[/center]









































[center]Lovely drone shots from outside the parks[/center]
