The History of Morant’s Curve

Morant’s Curve is a scenic viewpoint on the way from Banff to Lake Louise in Banff National Park, Canada. Located along Highway 1A (also known as The Bow Valley Parkway -an absolutely stunning drive, if you’re in the area!), it’s a cherished spot for photographers to try to capture the trains. Patience is definitely a virtue when it comes to photographing the trains here as the schedules are not public.

Nicholas Morant

Morant’s Curve is named for the famous Canadian photographer Nicholas Morant. This lucky gentleman worked for the Canadian Pacific Railway company for two separate stints as a staff photographer.

He spent over 40 years of his career with them and got to ride the trains photographing scenic Canadian landscapes. Morant retired in 1981 and passed away in 1999 at the age of 88. Even appearing at one point on Canadian currency, his work is still widely recognized today.

Canadian Pacific Railway

Built in 1881, the CP Railway is a transcontinental railway spanning all the way from Toronto to Vancouver, two of Canada’s major provincial capitals. The railway was instrumental in expanding Canada’s population Westward, and is still fully operational today. As a symbol of Canada’s history and culture, it is a must see while visiting the Canadian Rockies.

Chromaluxe Metal Prints

Metal prints make for a beautiful and modern presentation. The image is printed directly onto an aluminum surface, allowing for crisp high-resolution details and rich, stunning colours. Metal prints are surprisingly light-weight even at large sizes, and appear to pop out from the wall thanks to the foam backing.

They arrive at your house securely packaged with all needed hardware attached and ready to hang. Caring for metal prints is also a breeze. Just give them a wipe-down from time to time with a soft, dry non-abrasive cloth to remove any dust or finger prints.

Gallery Wrap Canvas Prints

Canvas prints are an affordable and attractive option, particularly if you are shipping overseas. Images are printed directly onto a textured canvas surface and stretched across a warp-proof wooden frame.

This results in a rustic appearance that suits nature photography perfectly. As with metal prints, canvas prints are lightweight and easy to hang. You can also wipe them down with a dry cloth to remove any dust.

Lustre Paper Prints

Lustre paper prints arrive rolled in a tube or with a rigid cardboard backing to keep them secure in the mail. Paper prints are ideal for you if you plan to frame and mat the print yourself. Giving you lots of options for matching your room décor.

Lustre paper has a slightly glossy surface that is more resistant to finger prints and glare than true glossy paper. We test printed many different types of paper before arriving at one that would suit this style of photography nicely.
