My first time there.
Funny thing is (and really, it's unforgivable) I have lived in Calgary my entire life, which is maybe an hour and a half away.
So I've only been taking photographs as a hobby for a few weeks now.
I've been learning to use my camera on my own so far, but I do plan on taking some classes to better understand the whole iso, f stop and all that jazz.(Canon Digital Rebel XTi, sigma 18-200 mm lens and a circular polarizer)
Here's a few shots I'm kinda proud of.
The view from the other side of the mountain. That's Banff down below.
Some trees on the mountain. I tried to get the whole silly "mystical shiney light through the shadows" look.
My friend. Candid photo attack.
Next purchase is a tripod and a Graduated neutral density filter (I belive that's what it's called) .
