I have been blessed to spend most summers traveling to, and photographing, many national parks in the United States and Canada. Like magic - the weight of my everyday concerns just seemed to vanish into thin air when inside the boundaries of the parks. Surrounded by nature's beauty provides one with unexpected stress relief.  The adventures within the parks are often unique. There is something special about the sunrises, sunsets, hiking, picnics in the meadows and woods, and those special wildlife moments always fill your senses and your heart. It makes me somehow feel younger! There are endless scenes filled with stunning beauty, and recreational opportunities. The photographs that appear here represent a small sampling of cherished memories and beauty that I wish you can also experience. The parks in both the United States and Canada are truly "National Treasures."
