Icefields Parkway

As a photographer, there are moments when the world seems to unfold its beauty just for your lens to capture. For me, one of those moments was the magical journey along the Icefields Parkway in the heart of the Canadian Rockies. The sheer majesty of the towering peaks, pristine glaciers, and turquoise lakes was like stepping into another world. Each bend in the road revealed a new scene that captivated my attention.

My poor husband had to put up with my frequent requests to pull over so I could pop my head out of the sunroof to photograph yet another breathtaking vista. At times, it must have seemed like we were on a perpetual stop-and-go adventure, but to me, each pause was a chance to freeze a moment of awe-inspiring beauty. The way the sun painted the peaks with a golden hue or how the clouds danced around the edges of the glaciers – these were the moments that made every stop worth it. The Icefields Parkway isn't just a scenic drive; it's a canvas of nature's finest artwork, and I did my best to capture every stroke of its brilliance. [Shot on Portra 400 taken with a Mamiya 645]
