This is where I spent my Saturday morning. How about you? Bubblers are the people who go out to this lake to see the methane bubbles that appear under the surface of the ice. I was on the verge of freezing to death and had to retreat into the van but the others managed to catch a glimpse of them. I regret it though- next time I’d lose a toe for the photo. For now, I’m not yet a bubbler!

In the midst of the Canadian Rocky Mountains is a lake that expels methane gas. Over the course of the winter, the surface water freezes over, trapping the methane gas in the ice. On clear days, the ice appears crystalline, leaving the frozen methane bubbles highly visible

Abraham Lake in Alberta is well known for these ice bubbles that occur every winter. The plant material at the bottom of the lake produces methane gas which then freezes in the ice.

we drove through a downpour in the Canadian Rockies for nearly 2 hours. Once the rain had stopped, the water left a few beautiful reflections on the road. Follow me on Instagram - @petenathanson for more.

Absolutely loved this place. It’s not easy to get to and you absolutely need to be ok with driving a long way in a car, but that island, albeit, small is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen.

We canoed 14km down Maligne Lake to Spirit Island in perfect conditions. On our way back up the lake the weather changed swiftly and the 14km back to the boat house against relentless headwinds and strong waves almost broke us. A true adventure we’ll never forget.

My girlfriend and I went on a trip to the Canadian Rockie Mountains over the long weekend. As we pulled over to stretch our legs I got hit with this raw reality of how small I am compared to these massive bouldering rock creations. I had to take a second from shooting and just gaze around me and thank God for the beautiful world he made.

We hiked to capture this gorgeous lake that looks like a Fox. It drizzled on our way up top and then the sun pop out, which made it pretty great with the rainbow.

As we were driving through Banff national park, we happened upon this small lake early in the morning. The mist was just burning off and the waters were so calm, they provided the perfect surface for a stunning reflection of the tree line.

First trip to the nature of Canada. i’m from Europe so this is pretty special for me especially at the age of 18. Even saw some bears, Canada has some really incredible nature. The nature wasn’t perfect but it made my photos look moody and i like that a lot. This was the first holiday i went on where i was into photography so it was amazing to explore the nature as well as the functions and every detail about my camera.

On my way to Johnston Canyon in Banff when this guy poked its white face out in the blue. I had to drive a bit to find a safe place to stop and get out to take the picture, but I think it turned out ok. This is the kind of image that gives me pause and to reflect on the forces that created the rockies those millions of years ago. What a great way to time travel.

Wapta Mountain as seen from the base of Takkakaw Falls in British Columbia, Canada. Takkakaw Falls has a height of 373 metres (1,224 ft), whcih makes it the second tallest waterfall in Canada. The river it feeds runs through Yoho national park and like the rest of the glacial waters, it carries the same incredibly turqouise-green colour.

This is Lake Louise, and it's iconic emerald blue waters. In the middle left of the image you can see the Big Beehive which is an intense, but incredibly rewarding hike!

The iconic Lake Louise taken from on top of the Big Beehive. This hike took roughly 3 hours but it was incredibly worth it, the views are breathtaking. You can also see the brief snow spell we had passing through in the background.

This was taken near the Lake Agnes Tea house where me and my friend hiked too. We had lunch at the tea house and I thought that this would make for a beautiful photo. I loved that the snow hadn’t fully melted and that the lake is still largely frozen over even in late May.

The most beautiful summer day in Banff, Alberta, spent with my childhood friend of 17 years. There’s really no place like Lake Louise with its pristine blue waters, crisp mountain air and bright summer sun.

When we arrived at Lake Louise for our first adventure in Canada’s Banff National Park, we were stunned by its beautiful color and the craggy mountains it was nestled between. As we hiked up for increasingly stunning views, we were able to catch glimpses of the lake. This shot shows Mirror Lake (foreground) and Lake Louise (background).

Hiking back from the Lake Agnes Tea House towards the Chateau Lake Louise me and my friend thought that Lake Louise was looking extra blue and that we should take a few photos of it. I especially love all the canoes that are stacked up ready for all the tourists.

Walking up the trail that runs alongside Lake Louise and up to Lake Agnes. Not only does the shape of the path guide you, the light does too. Canada is beautiful, and even something as simple as walking through a forest can be such a picturesque thing.

On our hike (The Big Beehive Hike) we visited the Tea House, which is located in a lovely hanging valley on the shores of Lake Agnes. After a forested 3.5km hike, with an elevation gain of 400m the valley opens to reveal spectacular Lake Agnes. They have 100 different types of loose leaf tea from various parts of the world and furthermore, they brew their tea with the water that comes directly from the lake.
