Riding Rocky Mountaineer from Kamloops to Jasper, Canada

 

Railways have been a significant part of Kamloops' heritage since the 19th century, and the trains continue to appeal to locals and visitors alike. Kamloops is home to Rocky Mountaineer Vacations, which brings over 90,000 guests to the city each year.

These tours make an overnight stop in Kamloops on their awe-inspiring journey through the Fraser Canyon, Thompson River Valley and the Rockies.

 

The highlights of this trip includes Pyramid Creek Falls with the water crashes over three stair steps style tiers before hitting a layer of bedrock which was thrust sideways that causes the water to fan into a pyramid shape. The other highlight is the Mount Robson which is a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site and it also marks the beginning of the Fraser River's 850 miles journey to the Pacific Ocean.

I am from Kamloops BC in Canada. Kamloops is in the distance but you can't see the city. This view used to be on one of Canada's currency. Photoshop does a much better job with shadows and haze. Can't wait to get back to use my A7R4 in BC.

I've been determined lately to learn more about photographing the milky way. This image is a combination of 20 stacked images to reduce noise in the sky (f/2.8, ISO 3200, 20 seconds), combined with a different exposure for the foreground (f/2.8, ISO 400, 491 seconds).

I am still playing around with the topaz impressions trial. This is done in the water colour 4.

BC Baby! I found the land to be so diverse from what I'm used to. I did get the whole lake, I'd never leave without getting every angle.

Stellar day yesterday! It began with the amazing sunrise, and finished with a gorgeous sunset! Couldn't have asked for more!

We have had a couple of wicked storms go through in the last few days, these were taken after the torrential rain had moved on and the sun began to come out again!

Random shots of Kamloops taken the other day when these amazing clouds moved in!

Looking down the Thompson River Valley over Kamloops. Don't let the orange sky fool you, this was a cold January evening, hence the dead grass and lack of leaves. It's very green up there now!

 

This is actually part of a much, much larger panorama.
