Monday turned out to be a much nicer day than was forecast. We just stayed in town. Several of these pictures are of the Bow River, It starts in a glacier to the north and was one of the rivers responible for the inundation of Calgary a few weeks ago. The second photo is the Banff Springs Hotel, established well over a century ago by the Canadian Pacific Railroad. It's an historic place where you can quickly empty your bank account for a small room. The last three pictures were taken after dinner just outside our hotel room.
Long drive today up to the Columbia Glacier. You can take a special vehicle out on the ice and actually have a walk around. The weather should be perfect.

les paysages sont magnifiques, et j'aime beaucoup la premiere photo (utilisation d'un filtre gris (nd) ? )
I particularly like the capture of the movement of the water in the first photo.
I have enjoyed watching your photo's! We visited the Canadian Rockies last September.
Another great group of shots but I really like the one of the hotel.
That second shot made me think you were in Europe!!! I've not travelled in Canada...looks like I've missed out!!!
Spectacular shots, Bob. I see those, and it's like coming home again. And yes, Banff Springs is the sort of hotel that'll set one back... by a lot!
I hope you've enjoyed getting up on the glacier. It really is an experience to be had.
Canada is so incredibly beautiful!
Marvellous images Bob, i must get over my fear of flying and visit Canada, it looks spectacular.
Some majestic views here.
