Silent Flight, Piercing Gaze!(DSC_4989)

I love how 2026 has started for me. After photographing a Great Gray Owl not long ago, I’ve now been fortunate to spend time with these stunning Snowy Owls in Alberta. What makes this even more special is the journey behind it. I visited this location several times during the winter months of 2025 without a single sighting. Not once. But over the past few days, every visit has been rewarded with the presence of a snowy. This one gave me a brief golden glance mid-flight!

Fire and Ice

Taken during a polar vortex, the temperatures at sunrise were -33ºC. This image captures the skyline of Toronto through an incredible sculpture at the shores of Humber Bay

Snowy at dusk

This stunning owl was waiting for sunset to begin hunting. Winter in Ontario sees snowy owls fly south from colder regions. They are increcible to see!

There's More Than Meets the Eye

I spent some time photographing this Common Raven at Algonquin Provincial Park. They were a co-operative subject which allowed me to capture some of the scenery in their eye just before blinking.

Wholly Smokes

Reflecting

A Walk on the Wild Side

While photographing on Long Beach, Pacific Rim National Park, i was inspired to create an ICM. Then the next idea came to make a composite with people walking on the beach.
