## Caption

Spent the past few days in the Canadian Rockies scrambling up mountains and doing some of the most physically challenging hikes I’ve ever done. Through these past few months of uncertainty and creative rut, I have not felt this satisfied with myself and my work in a long time. It’s been the highlight of my year hanging out with my favourite people and learning from the best.

Now about the image. We arrived at Sunwapta falls just before sunrise and spent the hour relaxing beside the waterfall and waiting for blue hour. This was my first time in Banff in the summer, and the two times I’ve been here before, this massive waterfall was completely frozen. The beautiful teal water blew my mind and to be honest, I really don’t know if I prefer this place in the bright white winter or the green summer. This is also my first time trying a composite image! Let me know what you guys think.
