My wife and I have been talking about taking the trip from Vancouver to Banff via train and bus. Beautiful picture, really great photo.
I would recommend the train. Then rent a car and drive back. I can give you an itinerary.
My grandfather worked at this hotel in the summers when he was a kid and going to university. We used to go to it every summer. I grew up in Kamloops and we would take the train there.
An image I took tonite in Vancouver's English bay. The kids are my boys, Taiki and Jeffrey. The smoke is coming up from Oregon.
That D500/200-500 nails them well. Makes me want one...
The stacking and wavelet processing in Registax produces much of the crisp detail, but getting sharper shots to process from the get go certainly helps. Can take some fussing with the focus ring in Live View to get the best sharpness possible given atmospheric conditions. Astro requires a certain level of patience. And humility.

Thanks, Photobug. Although as said before they aren't all of my daughter - I take pics of everyone and share them with the rest of the team after. And I'm not above taking shots that mostly feature a player from the opposing team like this one:
mhedges - in August took pictures at thee Baseball Games for the "Heat". The last game was the championship game...they won the tournament. These pictures are of our grandson.
