Driving through the Canadian Rockies was probably the one of the best experiences I had in Canada. When we stopped for ice skating on the frozen Mildred Lake, I captured this awesome view.

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.

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.

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.

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.

We were walking through a thick forest when we saw an opening and walked towards it, before our eyes was a lake with clear blue water and tall mountains covered with a surround of green trees.

This was a recommendation from a local that was surprised by the crowds on Lake Louise. He thought the crowds should have been at this lake. This is an amazing view for sure. Not sure I totally agreed with his sentiment. They are both magnificent.

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.

We stopped on the side of the road, completely drawn by the calmness of the scene. I could've stayed there forever.

Our tour across the Rockies had taken us far across British Columbia and Alberta. On day three we set out in thick fog and pouring rain. The plan was to strike out for Lake Louise and Emerald Lake in the hope the sun might show up. Luck was on our side, we left the bad weather behind us and were treated to the stunning trademark views everyone has come to expect of Canada.

On a day trip out to Yoho National park to see Takkakaw Falls I drove across this bridge, and as I was approaching it I knew I'd have to get out and get a photo because of how awesome it is. I just feel like it really works with the mountain, it's got a great aesthetic to me.
