This is the view from the sky gondola terminus at Sulphur Mountain, behind Banff. I thought about cropping the man at right, but that would leave no breathing space for the Canadian flag.

Notice the trash can too, which is designed to keep bears out, & trash in.

Hey hey!! That maple leaf caught my eye right away!! I'm glad you didn't crop the guy - I agree, the flag would have been too close to the edge.
Spectacular view again Chris - wow! Colors are great .. love the big, cloudless sky.
Great job Chris.

Hi Chris,
Fantastic POV from this vista point, the weather was perfect for a sharp, bright and clear capture. Beautiful representation of the Canadian flag and the majestic snowy mountains in one composition. Trash cans are funny with this anti-bear design... :)

Hi Chris,

Great landscape shot of a breathtaking view. Sharp and colorful with perfect DOF. I agree with your decision not to crop the man out. The unfurled flag looks nice against the blue sky.

TFS,

Hi Chris,

this image makes me wanna sing...

O Canada!
Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy sons command.

With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
The True North strong and free!

From far and wide,
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

Excellent composition with wonderful light and colours :)

Best regards,

Stasa

Hi Chris
Nice shot with great composition
Beautiful details of mountain. Eyecatching blue sky
The details are superb
Best wishes, Alireza

A spectacular location and an equally spectacular composition - the view is breathtaking and I like your decision to show the viewing platform as well as the vista it affords. (Not so convinced about the partly-cut tourist on the far right.)
The gradient of the sky sits beautifully with the rich colours and details of that flapping flag.
