Natural landscapes: winter in the forest

BIG HILL SPRINGS PROVINCIAL PARK, ALBERTA

This western Canadian park, about a half-hour’s drive from my Calgary home, is one of my favourite places to visit. No matter what the weather, the water is always flowing, the forest is always delightful and I always come away with a few “keeper” images.
On this morning, it was bitterly cold, but I dressed for the weather and was blessed to encounter intimate scenes like this. There was very little colour in the forest, so I planned all along to create a black-and-white version to highlight the drama. Nevertheless, here’s a link to the colour version: https://bit.ly/BigHillSpringsCreek
