Paintings of the Canadian Rockies

in Photography Lovers2 months ago (edited)

With the somewhat smoky skies, some of the images almost look like paintings, adding a surreal feel to the experience. Of course if I had to choose, I would certainly prefer to have clear and smoke free skies, but it is what it is. I can’t control the weather. Just have to go with the flow you might say. I know the slightly diminished air quality does affect some people, myself, doesn’t bother me actually. If the weather needed to be perfect for every hike, then undoubtedly, I would probably miss out on half of the hikes. As you know (or maybe you don’t know), mountain weather can change on a dime, and the forecast is not always that reliable. Some of my most memorable hikes took place under sketchy weather conditions. Moral of the story is just go, irregardless of the forecast (obviously if there something extreme in the forecast, maybe hold back then).

A challenge it was, good thing I have lightroom!! Thanks.

From the picture we think its a clear sky fresh water, the gorgeous mountain...Is it a traffic road to be smoky ? so beautiful for any artist to make a try. In the second picture there is Kayaking along the river I believe. So lovely pics...

Yeah, thanks for the visit @shamis.

Clouds are good. For photography and for nature !LOLZ

Are these river banks natural?

These are man-made, good eye. Thanks for looking.

What gorgeous shots! The smoke add to the mountains in the black and whites so nicely. The water is so pretty!

Very true about the weather being perfect for a hike, if you wait for perfect weather you would never take any hikes! Hiking seasons is slowly drawing near...

Slowly but surely, yes. Thanks as always for your comments!

what is the smoke from? is it industrial smoke or like fog or natural fog or something?

There was some forest fire activity blowing in. Thanks for looking.

Wow these pictures are really amazing
I love how the black and white background brings the beauty out
