We have been through Banff quite a few times in the last few years. It wasn't until recently that we have stopped just outside of Banff at the rest stop above Vermillion Lakes. It wasn't actually until this week when I realized that this was the area you see from Highway #1.
Every other time we have come to the lookout above these lakes, I have always been disappointed by what I produced. I was a little discouraged from that rest stop.
We decided to get right down there and once I saw liquid water, I was running out to the shoreline in the bushes.
I set up the tripod and dialed in the exposure. I dropped it all the way down to f/22 and with my trusty B+W ND110, I was able to get a nice lengthy exposure. The clouds were flying by quite steadily and I captured some good motion. I would have liked to get more than 30 seconds but they look good in the sky .
After doing some research on a DIY ND filter, I realized that I could better adjust white balance in my own photos. I used the 'Custom White Balance' feature and shot a blank white page from my Field Notes and set the WB from that image. The result was incredible. I will work that into my process each and every time.

Red sky at night. From the shores of Third Beach in Stanley Park, looking towards West Vancouver and beyond. A fiery sunset lights up the clouds and reflects off the waters of English Bay. Captured Friday evening in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada ~ July 15, 2016
The Rough-legged Hawk spends the summer capturing lemmings on the arctic tundra, tending a cliff-side nest under a sun that never sets. Winter is the time to see this large, open-country hawk in southern Canada and the U.S., where it may be perched on a pole or hovering over a marsh or pasture on the hunt for small rodents.
Image was taken in Downtown Vancouver, BC.

A coyote standing in a snowy, open prairie landscape, blending seamlessly into its natural habitat. With its thick winter coat and keen gaze, the coyote embodies adaptability and resilience, thriving even in the harsh conditions of winter.
The second supermoon of the summer, this time the Okanagan valley is extra smokey from area wildfires.

After roaring aurorae all week, I decided to go test my luck last night near Pense, Saskatchewan.
There were no light shows but I set up beside this friendly guy for a few shots and got some I really enjoy.
The light sources were from light towers standing tall from quite a far distance, which I find interesting.
Friday night's sky painter's sunset over the Strait of Georgia and Qualicum Beach on Vancouver Island - 09-12-2014
"Qualicum" is an anglicized version of the Salish word "sqal-li," meaning "where the dog salmon run."

A bird of coniferous forests, the Spruce Grouse (Falcipennis canadensis), is easy to overlook as it is relatively quiet and inconspicuous. Copyright © Kim Toews/All Rights Reserved.
Had an amazing Raptors watching tour of Pakowki Lake and Milk River areas with friend and naturalist Jerry Herzig
the highlight was of course the Ferruginous Hawks.
Jerry has a wealth of knowledge on wildlife habitat and behavior.
Thouroughly enjoyed his company and hospitality.
Since August of last year, we have started taking the 1A highway out of Canmore through to Calgary and back home. Although not very far from the Trans-Canada Highway, it is a much more scenic, almost intimate, drive.
We made it through this area looking for a good vantage point to get a long exposure of a train running through Kananaskis Country. I saw the water and just pulled over.
Through the beauty of long exposure camera tricks, you can't see how blisteringly cold and sharp the wind was. We got some great motion in the water to get it nice and frosty-smooth. I wanted to get as long as an exposure as I could to get the clouds as wispy as possible.
I was also just really happy to get a good view of the turquoise water. I wonder how long it would take for me photographing the turquoise water of western Canada before it loses its appeal. Likely never.

If you are nearby Ottawa, you have to visit Upper Canada Village, especially in Christmas time, when the lights are ON.
