It really is Lake Louise in Alberta, Canada and it is a beautiful photo. My cousins are vacationing in this area and they sent me this photo. Since it is so good and I was not there and did not take the photo, I decided to name it appropriately. I am posting this with their permission. I did a little editing but I really did not need to do much. I checked it on my software and it was taken with a Nikon Coolpix L10. It has 5 megapixels and I thought it did a great job. Do not tell my cousins I said that.
These particular cousins are a couple of confirmed bachelors. One retired from working for the Social Security Department, while the other was a teacher and has taught all over the world. Mostly he taught on American military bases overseas. He taught computer understanding in Korea, Sicily and Germany to name a few places. Both of them (Dick & Bud) have a keen sense of humor and are a complete joy to be around. They bicker back and forth and it reminds you of watching the old movie and TV show "The Odd Couple." One exception, they are both Felix. Bud is a spitting image for Santa Claus and I will show you in a later post. Needless to say the kids all over the world love him. He said he has been called Santa Claus in many different languages.
I believe they were going on a float trip today. This was taken July 21 and I left the people in to give it some perspective. Don't love it too much or I will never hear the end of it from Santa.

How can anyone not love a shot like this? What a view! That 5MP camera did a great job here and the colors are amazing! I especially like the color of the water. I knew there was some rugged beautiful terrain out that way, but didn't realize it was this beautiful.

This is one of the places I have on my "to go" list. I love mountains, and Alberta has some beauties. Your cousins sound like a riot. Both of them Felix, huh? No wonder they are bachelors. Thank them for sending such a great shot.

A beautiful and colourful scene, Tick. Your cousins did a fine job. It's not how many megapixels you got, It's what you do with them that matters.
Thanks for sharing.

The young do not know enough to be prudent, and therefore they attempt the impossible- and achieve it.
Looks like a place you would only find in Heaven. Beautiful photo.

My jaw dropped when I saw this shot!! It's been in the upper 80's and 90's here, I've been melting, and a jump in that water would sure hit the spot!!
