Cline Canyon & Cline River, Bighorn Wildlands, was my favourite location. It included time to hike and explore an expansive canyon in complete solitude.

Darwin stepped into my composition but it was rewarding since he added a sense of scale and provided a focal interest. Here he is busy at work. As photographers we like to “trophy hunt” and take photos of sweeping landscapes. We must not forget the “intimate details”. Darwin is no doubt isolating the details of Nigel Creek here in Banff National Park.
