An incredible image by James showing the 10 craggy peaks that form the awe-inspiring Valley of the Ten Peaks in Banff National Park, Alberta. Each one stands over 10,000ft (3,048m) tall. The road that James stood beside to take the photograph leads to the breathtaking Moraine Lake, which together with the peaks forms a scene that according to National Geographic is known by locals as the '20-dollar view' - because from 1969 to 1979 the lake and the mountain backdrop appeared on the back of the Canadian $20 bill

Well, as these 12 mesmerising images show, the partygoers are missing out.   

They were taken by amateur photographer James Cliburn, from Vancouver, who has spent the past five years exploring his country’s wild terrain, camera in hand.

And he’s done a jaw-dropping job of capturing the epic majesty of the scenery on his doorstep, from the towering Valley of the Ten Peaks in Banff National Park to otherworldly glaciers and waterfalls. 

The 38-year-old, who is also co-founder of online travel publication Stade Magazine, tells MailOnline Travel: ‘Canada has a vast array of beautiful landscapes. I really enjoy visiting the Canadian Rockies, so the national parks of Banff, Jasper and Yoho would be my pick of the most picturesque landscapes.

‘If you do some research you can get away from the chaos and experience a bit more of the Canadian wilderness. It is a place that rarely disappoints.’ Scroll down and lose yourself in the beauty of Canada…
