Taken at the wind energy project near Magrath, Alberta.

A celebration of Magrath, Alberta. A Canadian town with a unique heritage, settled by Americans over a hundred years ago. In fact Cardston County, Alberta was mostly settled by pioneers from Utah.

Except for me of course, a pioneer from Edmonton (by way of Calgary).

There's also a sizable Japanese community in area.

The Valley of the Moon is in a restricted part of Dinosaur Provincial Park, Alberta Canada. The preserve, only accessible by guided tour, has the largest amount of Dinosaur bones found anywhere in the world and has earned UNESCO World Heritage status as a result.

A short segment for an educational project on invasive plants and biodiversity I shot and edited. The original has a narrative element which I didn't include.
