By luck we ended up camping next to outdoors author / photographer Ian Wilson. He and wife Jacinthe Lavoie self-published Wildflowers of Banff Park in 2012.
Here’s a sample photo — a Western Wood Lily.

Actually, we met Ian near Waterton. They had been there for months researching their next book — Wildflowers of Waterton Park.
Looking forward to that one! 🙂
