The train, the Rocky Mountaineer travels through the Rockies from Calgary to Vancouver B.C. This trip takes in the beautiful mountain scenery. As you journey you can see waterfalls and snowy mountain peeks, small cabins with salmon hanging on a line. Log jams can be seen as you near Vancouver. All this an more from the splendid viewing car of the train. A journey inspired this painting.
Painting plein air is such a joy. In this picture it was a cold and cloudy October day but the pumpkins captured the eye with the bright orange colours.
