Autumn in Alberta

Although I am a summer person and the changing colors of the leaves signifies the impending arrival of winter,I do love the fall colors.As I get older I suffer our Canadian winters more and more.As I get closer to retirement I think more and more about finding a nice warm place to spend winter......how bout this....6 months Australia-N.Z. then 6 months in Alberta?

Great collection, Rick. I especially liked your shots of Edmonton. You must have had a great vantage point (how many storeys up? :-)

It really had been a glorious fall for the Canadian Prairies. I'll be posting some shots I took of North Central and North East Alberta within the next while. I can't remember better fall colours in that region--EVER.
