ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Eiffel Lake, which lies at the foot of the Wenkchemna Peaks, better know as the Valley of the 10 Peaks once featured on the back of the Canadian $20.00 bill.

Winter leaves the high ground at a slow pace. This image was taken in June and the snow was hanging on. I found this spot above Eiffel Lake which gave the point of view I was after. The sky was enticing and a small draft of a breeze gave a skiff on the lake as I fired off this shot. The Wenkchemna Peaks ( Native for 1 to 10 ) known also as Valley of the 10 Peaks, which once adorned the $20.00 bill, form the backdrop on this special day.

AUTHOR
Gita Photos is a Landscape Photography Studio based in Banff, Alberta and Banff National Park a World Heritage Site.

Hi, my name is Ron Hallam. I am truly blessed to be able to live in and work in this stunning location; Banff, Alberta. I closed in and renovated the deck of my condo to be an editing studio. The studio is paneled in Alberta cedar. The main part of the ‘studio’, though, is the Banff National Park and the Canadian Rockies!


I hunt throughout the Park to find locations where the natural wonders of the Rockies are illuminated by the natural light of the moment. As one client testimonial put it, I want to offer you “ an instant escape to someplace magical” ( Jane Fedosoff, Toronto, Ontario) Another client commented “Ron's photographs are not just beautiful images of the Canadian Rockies. They are Ron himself – his life experiences, his love for this place and his eye for detail- that show a depth and unique understanding of this special place we are lucky to call home.” (Phil Monod, Banff Alberta)

Every time I make an image, it is the direct result of letting the “something” inside me come up to the surface, and compel me to record that moment of what I’m seeing and feeling. I want to engage you to see the Rockies, and feel the Rockies exactly the way I do. I want to try to have you try to understand and engage with my perspective, and point you to the exquisite, intricate and profoundly intelligent designer - the God who created this natural world.
