We love to get out and explore. We often find ourselves out in the mountains looking for roads we've never been on just to see if we can get lost. Anything we own will be labeled #us. Feel free to submit stories and pics of your own adventures. Wander safely.

Just Nature’s Soul to Experience (Jasper National Park) by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: A setting looking to the northwest while taking in views of the Maligne River flowing by a nearby forest. This is in Jasper National Park at a roadside parking area along the Maligne Lake Road. What I loved about this setting was the backdrop of the Medicine Lake Slabs off in the distance with this river and forest setting. In composing this image, I zoomed in a little with the focal length and then aligned myself such that the river, as a leading line, would be more or less centered in the image. I had to watch the metering, as there were definitely highlights that could be blown from the mid-afternoon sunshine present. But I also wanted to be able to bring out the more shadowed areas in the nearby forest later on in post production. I later worked with control points in DxO PhotoLab 6 and then made some adjustments to bring out the contrast, saturation and brightness I wanted for the final image.
