I don’t know if it’s because the icy, harsh environment is so different from the one I am so used to (having spent most of my life living in the sub-tropical climates of Houston,…
As a photographer, I felt like I almost knew the Canadian Rockies even before I’d been there for the first time. Banff National Park often features in the “most popular” lists of various photo-based social networks like 500px and Flickr–particularly its lakes. On our way north through Banff and along the Icefields Parkway, we’d missed…
