Lake Louise
A picture of me that I actually don't dislike.
Taken via timer with the help of some bleachers.  (No, I don't know what
it was doing there.)

The Town of Lake Louise
A cute village.
The strip mall at the main intersection.  I had lunch at the deli you can
see at the corner of the building.

Viewpoints While Driving North
If you could tell the difference between the white of the glacier and the white
of the sky, you'd know this was tip of Crowfoot glacier.
Crowfoot glacier runoff, if I remember correctly.
Pietro Lake (as seen from Bow Summit)

Pietro Lake (as seen from Bow Summit)
A view into the distance from Bow Summit.
Excellent.
I really like the expressions of depth in this photograph.
Sign that explains why all the lakes created by glacier runoff are such a
vibrant blue.
Another timer-produced photograph from Bow Summit.
Another typical sight along the Icefields Parkway.

I saw this sign, "Welcome to a unique Canadian experience," on the way up while
fighting cold temperatures and a strong chilling wind.  I knew I had to take
a picture of this sign for this commentary on the experience.
