Best of Banff

in #photography7 years ago

The first few photos are of Lake Minnewanka, located in Banff National Park, just 10 minutes driving distance from the Banff townsite. Minnewanka means "water of the spirits" in the Nakoda language. This is also the longest lake in the park, coming in at 21km (13mi) in length!

Most of these photos have been previously posted. I am reposting those photos in this "Best of Banff" series for the Newer users who haven't seen them yet. Some of those posts just "Slipped through the Cracks" without being seen by many anyways!

You should seriously consider starting a ''Slipped through the Cracks'' regular series as it has a significant impact on some smaller channels.

Oh man, just awesome. Every photo is great. That beautiful blue lake surrounded by huge rugged mountains looks like heaven. Bighorn sheep are my favorite animals. Those close up photos are just incredible. And getting the kids out hiking the trails too, I love it! I hope someday I will be lucky enough to get to spend some time exploring Banff national park.
