On the road to Jasper, Alberta. Our first amazing view from behind the trees and hills.

Wow! Just had to stop on the highway to take a photo from behind this railing.
Edmonton’s must see botanical gardens. Behind this sign, one of four pyramids peaks out. Each pyramid maintains a distinct environment representing different biomes of the world.
Behind this metal sculpture, some cacti from the arid biome are flourishing.
I took a photo of the glass striations on a building in downtown Edmonton and you can see the scenery behind me being reflected.

Thank-you, Lindy. My daughter drove us from Edmonton to see the mountains in Jasper on our recent Christmas visit there. When I saw that scene, I was inspired to stop and take the shot.
