CARMEN THERRIAULT<br />
HOME IS WHERE YOU PARK IT<br />
This photo was made on the frozen lake Sylvan<br />
in Alberta which is where I live. Ice fishing is a<br />
common winter activity for some in Canada<br />
and ice fishing huts of all shapes, sizes and<br />
styles decorate the landscape for the winter<br />
months. This fishing hut is likely also someone's<br />
summertime camper. With the full moon rising,<br />
I thought this photo was very descriptive of our<br />
winter landscape.<br />

CONNULL LANG<br />
BUBBLES AT MINNEWANKA<br />
This lake was created when they built a hydro dam to<br />
supply the town of Banff with power in 1941. In doing<br />
that they flooded another town called Minnewanka<br />
Landing. All the decaying material at the bottom of<br />
the lake releases methane gas which floats up and<br />
gets trapped in the ice as the lake starts to freeze. You<br />
can (if you want) chisel the ice bubbles open and<br />
ignite the gas pockets which burn away with a flash.<br />
