We were lucky enough to watch this Bull Elk or Wapiti lead his herd across the Athabasca River. Amazing experience as we sat there on the bank for almost 30 minutes watching them cross one by one. Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada Love Life, Love Photography
This is a shot from 2017 of the Aurora Borealis or Northern Lights in Mt Robson Provincial Park. This was the night I took my shots of STEVE to the south over Berg Lake and Mt Robson from the same position (this shot looks north). The red/pink band of forms at around 250 – 500 km altitude from high energy state excited oxygen atoms emitting light at 630 nm. The bottom layer is the more typically seen green aurora that forms between 100 – 250 km altitude by excited oxygen atoms emitting light at 557.7 nano-metres.
A man sits in quiet contemplation within the interior splendour of the Notre-Dame Basilica, Montreal, Canada. Constructed between 1824 and 1879 the basilica's gothic revival architecture is among the most dramatic in the world. The stained glass windows along the walls of the sanctuary do not depict biblical scenes, but rather scenes from the religious history of Montreal. The basilica was constructed on the site of the original parish church of Notre-Dame which was built in 1672.
