Constructive use of solitude

“In order to be open to creativity, one must have the capacity for constructive use of solitude. One must overcome the fear of being alone.” The world is quiet here; and the words of the American existential psychologist Rollo May seem to ring truer than ever. I took this shot while snowshoeing on the Athabasca Glacier in Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada

Below is a wider angle version of the same scene which hopefully gives you an idea of how big the landscape is out in the Canadian Rockies.
