Saw Whet Owl Snoozing in Sunshine

With temperatures dipping to -35 degrees Celsius in Winnipeg it was a bitter cold day. This sweet little Northern Saw Whet Owl found a nice warm sunny spot on top of a bird feeder to take an afternoon nap.

When Silence Turns to Light

In the deep silence of the night, light begins to breathe.

Beneath a Living Aurora

Under the northern sky, the aurora unfolded quietly above the frozen mountains, its movement gentle yet deeply powerful. Moments like this remind us how alive the natural world truly is, and how small, grateful, and connected we become in its presence.

Little House on the Shore

A strong storm was forecast for the night of January 20th, was not expecting them to be visible before the sun had really set. It was extremely cold so I headed out right away to try and capture them with something in the foreground before it got even colder! To my surprise the little boathouse was lit up inside so it gave me the perfect subject, the lights also didn’t disappoint!

Pileated Woodpecker - Peek A Boo

I was walking through a local park on one of the coldest days in January when I saw this beautiful Pileated Woodpecker playing peak a boo. The tree cavity certainly offered him good shelter from the winds and icy cold temperatures.

Gataga Loading

A group of youth from Kwadacha, B.C., load canoes ahead of a ten-day descent of the Gataga River. The Gataga is one of the most remote rivers in the province and crosses through the heart of Tse'kene and Kaska territory in the Muskwa-Kechika Management Area, the largest protected area in North America south of 60°.

Heard quite a ruckus while approaching a friends place on the edge of the jungle and found her stand under the perpetrator high in the canopy

Waxing Crescent Over Fredericton

One of my favourite phases of the Moon - the waxing crescent. I hopped out of the car in -30 degree winds to grab this capture earlier in January 2026. During the waxing crescent phases of the Moon, it's easy to see the "Earth shine" phenomenon. A moment where sunlight reflected off the Earth illuminates the darker portion of the Moon.

A sentient creature - Coyote Bonded Pair

Coyotes are sentient creatures who are intelligent and possess emotions similar to humans. It was an extreme pleasure to watch this mated pair - you could feel the bond between them as they reassured each other as I passed the area they were in.
