@1.17, that shape of the geology is called a syncline. Those are folded sedimentary layers. Next time leave Brent at home and invite a geologist to come along. I'll never forget a comment from one of my early professors; "to the non-geologist, a walk through the mountains is like a walk through an art show, but the paintings are all turned away, towards the wall". By the way, the early wake up was well worth it, that a beautiful image. Looks like the Canadian Rockies were in beautiful form for fall color. Both you and Adam have produced some excellent stuff this year.

I have to say that is one of my favourite photography videos ever... as a hobby photographer the chances of getting out are not very often, so I decided to ignore the weather forecasts her in the UK some time ago, the result was some fantastic conditions I would have missed as you say if I had followed them. The knees hit home for me being a young 56 year old getting down to those reflection shots.. Awesome shots by the way and respect for the image you dedicated, my thoughts are with them. But the main thing was how much you seemed to enjoy the trip and the emotion that you obviously felt at the time. Very useful very entertaining. Thank you :-) Oh and Amanda was alright too ;-)
