The Million Dollar View Bow River & Val


 

BetterPhoto.com Editor's Pick  
"The Million Dollar View"  Bow River & Val
"The Million Dollar View" Bow River & Val
This is the view from the second story ballroom at Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel and was deemed "The Million Dollar View" a long time ago and it still stands true today. You are looking at the Bow River, Bow Valley and Fairholme Range in the distance. No charge for looking today.

  This is so pretty, majestic. What a perfect pov you got and the composing gives us the depth that just makes the picture even more beautiful. I love how you have the rock on the right and left and then the lower part in the center to frame the mountains. Gorgeous my friend.

  I love this spot! So beautiful Emile and you did such a great job here!!!

Next time you are here you will have to take the Gondola ride up Sulpher Mountain. Breathtaking views of Banff Townsite from up there as well as Lake Minnewanka and the Bow River!

Did you take the Gondola and I haven't made it to those photos yet???

Really lovely work here!!! :D
