The Big Bend Along the Icefields Parkway (Banff National Park) by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: While at the Big Bend overlook with a view looking southeast in Banff National Park. I have been to this point several times on my trips to Alberta and truly love the way the mountains rise up on both sides of the highway! So my thought on composing this image was to take advantage of those mountainsides and angle my Nikon SLR camera to bring out a sweeping view, looking down this valley. I pulled back on the focal length so that it would bring out more of a wider-angle and panoramic feel to fill up the image and setting.
