[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Another (birdseye) view, from the top of Sulphur Mountain, behind the scenic Canadian Rockies resort town of Banff. The viewing platform is covered in snow.

"The mountain was named in 1916 for the hot springs on its lower slopes. The springs have been developed into swimming and hot pools. George Dawson had referred to this landform as Terrace Mountain on his 1886 map of the area."

Hi Chris,

The view is impressive. The point of view takes our eyes toward the range of mountains which is giving depth to the photo. The intendsity of the light brings out the colors of the scenery. Have a nice day.

hi Chris

True to your title, this is a superb POV of a iconic landscape Banff scenery that shows the aerial view of late autumn season. Good color tone of the greenery with a bit of snow. Good work.

tfs, bill

Great shot Chris, with the viewing platform as the focal point - but the backdrop - wow! Stunning view again. Did you go to the hot springs?

Have a great weekend,
