Default Inkpot

Went hiking again today and had a chance to test my new circular polarizing filter. We went to Johnston Canyon in Banff National Park. After about 6km of hiking we came to the Inkpots. There are 5 of these beautiful cold mineral springs in this mountain meadow where the water slowly bubbles up from beneath the ground.

Filter looks like it did its job. Is that your dog with you? Dogs seem born to go on hikes.

Beautiful.

Thanks for the kind words. I absolutely love the colours in this picture.

Chip, the black dog belongs to my friends (who are in the picture). The little white dog next to him that you can just barely see is ours.
