1. Takakkaw Falls in Yoho.

2. Natural pillars called the Hoodoos.

3. Vermillion lakes.

Feel free to comment or give advice. Thanks!

These are great, but really lack contrast and saturation in my opinion.

I love the 3rd shot.

I agree with Sw1tchFX; these seem too bright and lack saturation. I think a polarizing filter would have made these good photos great. Sorry if I am too harsh (I think it's because I am really tired). You could also enhance them with photoshop or another program.

Agree with others...great pictures, but they need work with the saturation, lighting, etc. I did just a little work on this one in Photoshop. Hope you don't mind my editing it, if you do I'll take it down.

Yeah, i went in photoshop, adjusted the levels, added a vignette and a border:

Wow, thanks a bunch everyone, great advice and great results, I'll definitely keep my eye on improving lighting, contrast, and saturation.

Would you recommend taking the picture at a darker metering level? Or should I make better use of the central average metering that I have? Or is the exposure the problem? Also I believe the scanning made some of the pictures seem brighter than they were on my prints. Any advice would be great.

Again, many thanks.

maybe half a stop under and THe lack of contrast is a result of the film i think.
