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.

A few weeks ago, my family and i hike on the moose lake in jasper national park. Unfortanetly we didnt came upon any moose but we same some beautfiull reflections on the lake. It was 33 degrees and totally worth it. I shot this photo with my new canon camera.

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.

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.

This was taken 2017, when Maligne Lake is frozen and travel on the lake is possible. An activity when winter hits Jasper, Alberta. Explore Jasper.

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.

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!

Waking up at 4am was worth it! Having such a blast at Abraham Lake with the Digital Media class from Prairie College.

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.

A small lake with unbelievably clear water nestled in the Canadian Rockies. Taken in Yoho National Park, Alberta, Canada.

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.

We started hiking the Iceline trail with every intention of finishing it, but the weather had other plans. Rain, hails, snow - the further we hiked along the exposed and rugged trail, the more unpredictable the weather got. So we decided to turn back and cut off the trail to head to Yoho Lake instead. Taking cover under the massive pine trees, the rain slowly tapered off until it stopped all together leaving the lake with a glasslike surface that allowed not only for reflections of the trees and mountain, but all of our thoughts as well. “Model” - @dannykashh

The raging Yoho River in Yoho National Park, British Columbia. This river was incredibly loud, and it wasn't until halfway through my shooting that I realised if a bear was behind me... I would have had no idea haha!

This photo was taken on a moody day not far from Emerald Lake in Yoho National Park. The low-level clouds give this scene a nice, mysterious vibe.

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.

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.
