Canada, the second-largest country in the world, invites adventurers to its expansive terrains and multicultural cities.

<p>Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada<br />
<br />
The Icefields Parkway in the Canadian province of Alberta is one of the world’s great road trips. It takes you on a 145-mile scenic journey through the heart of the Canadian Rocky Mountains, connecting Lake Louise in the south to Jasper in the north. The road winds through both the Banff National Park and the Jasper National Park, with jaw-dropping mountains everywhere. A lesser known feature is the quartzite boulder field, which was created by a landslide. In winter, the boulders become covered in thick snow and take on an alluring aesthetic. They remind me of sleeping Moomins, that family of white, round, hippopotamus-like trolls dreamt up by Finnish author and illustrator Tove Jansson.<br />

<p>If you visit a BC salmon river in the autumn it is easy enough to photograph Grizzly Bears eating salmon.  But it is not so easy catching them in the act.  Bears chase down fast-moving salmon in the shallows where they spawn.  But it all happens so quickly amid much splashing it can be difficult to see what's going on.  This Grizzly was just about to take a swipe at a terrified Chum Salmon.  Bears don't always succeed, but this encounter did not end well for the salmon.</p>
