A view into the expanse of the Rocky Mountains in Banff National Park. Through this valley runs the Icefields Parkway, certainly one of the most impressive stretches of roads I've ever driven on.

It is named after Ebenezer William Peyto, an early trail guide and trapper in the Banff area.

Beautiful. Wow. What a view. You've captured this perfectly Justin. And the clouds "kissing" the mountain peaks are amazing. Really nice.

Best regards, Tom

Hi Tom, always a pleasure to hear from you. I like that, the clouds "kissing" the peaks. Hadn't looked at it that way yet.

Thanks for the compliment. Although I'm pretty happy with how this turned out, it still doesn't do justice to the real thing. It's amazing what nature can produce.

Kind regards, Justin

Indeed, H.S.! Thanks for your nice comment, and sorry for not replying sooner. I was abroad for 10 days - photos coming soon :)

Kind regards, Justin
