Description

Mt. Clapperhorn is south of the Fraser River near Mount Robson viewpoint. The Rocky Mountains range southeasterly from Mt.Robson Provincial Park form the border between British Columbia and Alberta. Although Mt. Robson is the highest, it is surrounded by two snow-covered mountains which are Mt.Cinnamon (2713m) and Mt.Clapperhorn (2687M). Mt.Robson Provincial Park is 217,200 hectar extent and the second oldest provincial park in British Columbia.
I liked the view of the sweeping forested slopes converging on the winding valley, which probably forms a convenient access route for hikers and possibly even trail riders.

. A little about me:
My name is Janet but I go by Jann, and I am originally from Ontario, Canada and have lived on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, since 1985.
I love the seacoast and mountains, so many of my photos are from British Columbia, Alberta, Vancouver Island, Nova Scotia, Cape Breton Island. My main photo themes are sea, coastal,villages, people, portraits, mountains, trees, lakes, waterfalls, flowers, nature,wildlife, birds, animals, landscapes, sunsets, and the great National Parks of Canada such as Jasper,Banff, Waterton, Cape Breton Highlands, Yoho, Glacier, Kootenay,Mt. Robson, Strathcona and others.
In the art world, I was initially trained as a Commercial Artist and Illustrator and eventually explored many other methods of art/style as well as other mediums. I work in pencil, ink, acrylics, watercolor and oil pastels. I have also enjoyed mosaic design and application, floor murals, wall murals, collapsible screens, floor cloths, graphic design. Explored sculpture, ceramics, jewelry, hand painted furniture, refinishing old frames with gold leaf or faux finishes, interior design and interior decorating.
With the advent of digital cameras I came to really enjoy photography both as an artistic expression as well as a foundation for capturing interesting and exciting compositions to be painted later.
My recent creative endeavour was graduating from a certified Cosmetology Program (hairstylist and esthetics) in March 2009.
