There is a reason why the Canadian Rockies are some of the most photographed mountains in the world. Rugged peaks encircle glacier-fed lakes, rise up like protective walls around tree-filled valleys, and offer a stunning backdrop to open alpine meadows. They have been photographed from the valley bottoms, from the shores of famous lakes, and from the summits of prominent peaks. They are accessible by vehicle, boat, gondola, skis and hiking boots. But a lucky few have photographed the Rockies from the air.

Comprising one of the most comprehensive collections of aerial photos from the Canadian Rockies to date, Aloft will enhance the viewer’s appreciation of this internationally renowned landscape and provide a unique perspective on mountains that are as grandiose from the skies as they are from their better-known vantage points.

It Had The Potential

The thought of flying above the beautiful scenery that is western Canada provides much incentive to read through this 2021 text. And there is no doubt whatsoever that the author was mesmerized by the awesome landscape. Indeed, it would actually be very interesting to be able to see the original digital files. Within the un-numbered pages, there are some images that do manage to provide dramatic compositions. But whether its the way the book was printed, or if the images needed further processing, many of the pictures simply look 'flat'. In too many instances, the shadow areas provide no detail and the level of contrast just does not do the pages justice. Some pictures would have benefitted from crisp, brighter whites. And, even better, most of the images, if properly printed, would have jumped off the pages if reproduced in black & white...with dramatic impact. As I mentioned, it has the potential - but it just isn't realized in this version.
