Coastal Calm

A beautiful evening at The Dungeon's Provincial Park. Fog rolls over the rugged coast as campers find the perfect view, while horses graze among blooming irises.

The Atlantic's Evening Palette

As the sun slips below the horizon, Bonavista's sky glows with layers of orange, pink, and purple, blending seamlessly into the Atlantic.

The Boss

The legendary 'The Boss' Grizzly Bear. One of the most well known Grizzly Bears in the Banff and Kootenay NP areas.

Float Like a Butterfly, Hunt Like an Owl

Wings up, ready to start the day. A short-eared owl lands gracefully on to its perch basking in the golden dusky sunset. Like a Beautiful Marsh Butterfly.

Cabot Head Bruce Peninsula

Access to the lighthouse at Cabot Head, on the Bruce Peninsula is still restricted to the Friends Of The Cabot Head Lighthouse, and those who attend the bird sanctuary. The road was damaged by severe weather in the past few years, and along with mecury being discovered on the site, visitors have been more or less kept away. Hopefully the road will be turned into a hiking, and bike trail so that access to one of Ontario's most remote, and beautiful coastal locations can once again be appreciated. I took this image some years ago, looking north across Wingfield Basin. The only safe natural secluded harbour along the eastern side of the Peninsula.

Belted Kingfisher

Belted Kingfishers I find are one of the hardest birds to get a decent image of. Rarely staying in one spot for any length of time. Always on the move, always leary of anyones presence around them, and so fast. I was lucky on this occasion when a log had lodged itself along the banks of the Speed River here in Cambridge Ontario. Allowing me to get close in the undergrowth with my blind chair, without them noticing my proximity.

Blue Hour Ocean Views

After a long day of hiking the Cape Scott Trail. We made some tea and walked the beach to catch the last light of the day. All of the driftwood, white sand and sea weed made for a perfect setting to watch as the setting light filtered through the clouds and reflected off the water.

Beach, Waves and Backpacks

When your backpacking the Cape Scott Trail, you just can't help but stop and admire the bright white sand, the rolling waves and the rugged coastline. Definitely a long challenging hike, but one that was worth the effort!

Foot Prints in the Sand

While backpacking the Cape Scott Trail with a friend, I loved the way the sand showed our foot prints so clearly. Despite all of the mud on our way in, the bright white sand transported us to another world. Absolutely beautiful destination!

Backpacking on White Sand Beaches

Hiked the Cape Scott Trail with a friend, safe to say the white sand beaches were a highlight of this trip!

Black Bear Hidden Among The Rocks At Low Tide

While backpacking the Cape Scott Trail, I crossed paths with this black bear. Thoroughly enjoyed watching him poke along the rocks at low tide in search of his next meal. A well timed plane over head caught his attention and he lifted his head just long enough for me to snag a photo.

Black Bear at Cape Scott

While backpacking the Cape Scott Trail, we had the pleasure of following in this bears footsteps to the beach. The next morning at low tide we enjoyed watching him turn over the rocks and enjoy his breakfast.

Cape Scott Lighthouse

Hiked out to Vancouver Island's Northern Most tip to enjoy an afternoon exploring this actively manned lighthouse. The trail was rugged, but the trip was certainly worth it!
