Le Canadien, CANADÀ 2024
Alberta is one of Canada's ten provinces, located in the west of the country and one of the three Prairie Provinces. It borders British Columbia to the west and is one of the only provinces (along with Saskatchewan) without coastline access.
Geography: The province is renowned for its contrasting landscapes. To the west are the spectacular Canadian Rocky Mountains (featuring world-famous national parks like Banff and Jasper), while the rest of the province is dominated by prairie, forests, and taiga.
Economy: Alberta boasts one of Canada's strongest economies, driven primarily by its vast oil and natural gas resources, including the Athabasca oil sands. It also has significant agriculture and ranching industries.
Key Cities: The two largest and most important cities are Calgary (the financial and energy hub, famous for its annual Stampede) and Edmonton (the provincial capital).
A stunning sunrise after a hike through clouds and fog. We were slightly worried that we would just be socked in and not get any color or views. Luckily we pushed on!

No, I tripped while I was doing long exposure and bumped the tripod. Apologies in advance for how this makes your eyes feel. Sometimes we have the best intentions and the right set up but poor execution (and balance).
Spectacular coulees and hoodoos sculpted by erosion dominate the landscape in Writing-on-Stone Provincial Park, Alberta. These unusual landforms resulted from the dynamic interaction of geology, climate and time. Copyright © Kim Toews/All Rights Reserved.
I stopped by Moraine lake on the way home from a night shoot to catch the sunrise. As I was setting my camera for a self portrait these two ravens landed on the rock I was going to sit on. Nothing like enjoying a sunrise with birds of ill omen.
You can imagine my excitement when this Sora (Porzana carolina), usually a secretive species, walked out from the dense marshy growth and into full view at the edge of the pond, and began to take a bath. In this shot, the rail is going up in the air before plunging its head underwater during its brief but vigorous bath. Copyright © Kim Toews/All Rights Reserved.
