Summit Lake and a View to Mount Washburn by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: I loved the view of this with the lake seemingly hidden in a mountain valley with hillsides grassy meadows all around. With breeze blowing through the pass, it just had this peaceful feel to living life.

Farmland and Mountains (wide angle) by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: What a stop this was! Not long after getting on Hwy 6 and beginning the drive to Waterton, I came across farmland like this. What drew me in wasn't just that but also the Canadian Rockies as a backdrop and the big, wide open, blue skies above. What a sight!

The Highways of Alberta by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: While similar to the other image, for this one my focus was more on the highway with the van and truck just having raced by me. I loved the backdrop of the mountains and wind turbines too.

Wind Turbine by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: I zoomed in for a closure capture of this one wind turbine, keeping the wheat field in the foreground.

A Lone Wind Turbine by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: For this image, I decided to focus on this one wind turbine as I looked across the wheat field. I wanted to also capture a portion of the Canadian Rockies off in the distance to add to the feeling of distance.
