Photograph of a trout pool in Banff National Park, as viewed close-up. The trout pool (no trout visible) stretches across the foreground. Its edge arcs through the image in the near distance. A fountain, left-of-center, sits in the middle of the pond. Several sightseers stand around the pond's edge in the distance, left-of-center. All face towards the camera. Behind them, a bus is parked in a parking lot. It is viewed from the side and faces towards the left. Cars are parked in the lot to the right of the bus. In the background, trees line the parking area.
