On Top Of The World

It's almost as if I was in an airplane but no, I was not. I was just out and about and shot these while cruising the mountain roads with my husband.

It's understandable why the Avalanche warnings are so extreme here in the Rockies of BC in Canada. They urge folks not to ski or snowmobile alone in out of bounds area. As beautiful as it is, it can be very dangerous and some already have found the loss of family members...

Gorgeous, as they say... beautiful BC.

Stunning. Somewhat different here in Adelaide. Lovely blue skies are the only common thread.

V Rakesh said...

Wowow! Breathtaking pictures! Dizzying heights!

katney said...

Awesome, Michele! I am so glad you are getting out and about. I have a mountain sky, too, and on the day we did that hike there were lots of little snowballs coming down the slopes--precursors of possible slides. We went back by another way like the three kings.

Larry D said...

These are really wonderful, the first shot left me saying WOW.

Just beautiful!

Misty Dawn said...

WOW! Absolutely WOW! I'm in complete awe.

Mark Kreider said...

Your photos floor me! So sharp, clean and, of course, beautiful.

I wonder what special things you have to keep in mind when fly fishing as regards your seizures. All I have to think about is not falling down!

I hope that this will be your best year yet.

LV said...

I had the pleasure of visiting Canada once, but never saw such stunning sights as these. You truly live a heavenly aera.

Lew said...

These views of the Rockies, sky and clouds are awesome! Four-wheel drive is the only way to travel there. I learned PhotoShop by trying things and reading the hints. And there are many options that I have not yet tried.

I have epilepsy but I don't let that pull me down or control what I love to do in life.
Along with medications I am trying to control the seizures. People with seizures often suffer more from the attitudes of those around them than from the seizures itself.... for more information, contact the Epilepsy website here or talk to your local health unit.

Mountain Climbers! Please make your mark so I may follow you up as well!
