Once again, brilliant photos. Loved the baobabs! Many a time, i thought I was looking at a Southern African landscape.
Those landscapes are powerful, in this sense: Twenty years ago, a South African colleague was visiting. We were at a conference in Banff, Alberta, and she was delighted to visit the mountains -- she'd studied Canadian geography for her A-levels, she said, but never thought she'd see them in person. We took a day trip along the Icefields Parkway to the Columbia Icefield.
At Saskatchewan Crossing, she remarked, "You know, John, these landscapes remind me of Africa. They have great power. If you were travelling alone here, you wouldn't want to make a mistake, would you?"
Your photographs brought her words back to me -- thanks!
