Thanks, Ivan. The Canadian Rockies are stunningly beautiful. I enjoyed your gallery, particularly " the fugitives". Nice composition. Steve #1301307

This very nice. Great perspective. I seriously thought the green in foreground, with the way it is shaped, was a golf course! Nicely done. #2916773

Hi Steve! Not sure how I missed this shot in you gallery. I was looking through it tonight and this really caught my eye. What a great perspective on these lakes, and the differing colors based on their depths. Terrific work.. I imagine this hike was fantastic! #4909047

Thanks, Dave. This was no hike. I was just below the summit of a mountain the scared the dodo out of me. :)

Naw, I think you still have plenty of dodo left in ya! Great capture, absolutely beautiful colour and dramatic cloud play reflecting in the brilliant waters. Absolutely lovely! #5428420

I suppose there is more dodo in me. :) Thank you for the reality check, Crystal.
