Photography, Travel and Retirement

We drove about 4 km to the trailhead for our Pyramid Bench hike. While gathering our equipment together, I popped down to the lake shore to capture these photos of Pyramid Mountain, Lake and Island. The views were sublime.
After working for 43+ years (38 years 7 months with my last company), I finally got that promotion I waited my entire career for……retirement. I have been exploring this new career for the past 3+ years and while it is not always exciting, the chance to do what I want for myself and my family instead of what my company wanted me to do has been rewarding. While I still miss the social aspect of working with a team of great people, I have managed to keep in touch with many from my former team and I have many friends and family members who now fulfill this part of my life. Now that my Patty has retired, we are able to spend more time in pursuits and with people who are near and dear to us. I enjoy photography, gardening, working with my hands, walking, cycling, skiing, travelling, reading and creating special photo and video productions obtained in my first pastime. I may not become wealthy in any of these pursuits, but I already feel I am rich in life experiences far beyond any expectation. View more posts
Love the reflection of the mountains and trees in the lake. Visiting Jasper in the fall seems so peaceful and relaxing.

Thanks. The calmness of the waters amazed me. During parts of the day, the surface was ruffled, but, you could always find a time when all was dead flat. Our stay was very relaxing, for sure. A good place to contemplate. Thanks for reading. Allan

Pyramid Lake is so pretty and reflection off the flat water is perfect. Jasper is one of my favorite parks.

It is and particularly during this trip. The water seems to calm down on most days. Agreed, I can think of nowhere better in the Rockies. We saw a lot of people from Calgary there on this trip who were surprised at what Jasper has to offer. They had never been there before. Thanks for reading. Allan

Wow, looks amazing, Allan 😊 Pyramid Lake is quickly becoming one of my favourite places. I’m glad to see you had such perfect condition for capturing its beauty; there’s nothing more stunning then reflections in the water. Thanks for sharing and have a good day 😊 Aiva
