The View From Here: Lake Louise, Canada

Lake Louise in Banff, Canada seems to be one of the most beautiful locations on earth, as you may well agree when you take the opportunity to look at the photos from this month’s feature. The photographer of the photo above is Diane Wood, an artist living in Longmont, Colorado, who during a visit to this Canadian area put her artist’s eye to the lens with the result being this stunning photo.

In 1999, Diane and her husband Ken made a cross-country move to Colorado and began her journey into the art world. Diane refers to herself as a “representational” artist—one who is inspired by what she sees.

Diane’s philosophy sums up her photo of Lake Louise: “If I can reach the viewer with the same inspiration that caught my eye, I feel I have succeeded.”

The piece that Diane painted from the Lake Louise scene is equally compelling. Visit her website at www.dianewoodartist.com and if you are in Longmont, CO, stop by and visit her studio.
