Thanks for getting us going, Ed.
This photo was posted by Matthew Hicks on this forum years ago and has been the background on my computer ever since. It is the siding at Massive just West of Banff.
The CPR company paper tells of a grizzly bear that lived at Massive siding well into old age helping itself to the grain that fell from the trains. The rail crews were quite at ease with the bears' presence as the bear was with theirs.
My son and I hiked into this spot a couple of years after Matthew posted the pic and sat in this very spot for a couple of hours. Good times. Had the bear spray just in case.

Thanks to Kevin for the graphics.
This month we are in search of the splendor of the fall colors as the northern hemisphere transitions into fall (sorry Bear )
Please post any colorful, fall photos you come across. Someone already predicted a prevalence of Mike Daneman photos. They may be correct.
