Scouting The Passage

A Great Blue Heron overlooking the Salish Sea.

Winter's Beauty

Canada’s winter is both stunning and magical. After a fresh snowfall, everything, from forests to city streets, is wrapped in a soft, snowy coat. It reminds us that even the harshest weather can create moments of unexpected beauty.

The Blue Stone

A violent storm pushed cedar logs and debris upon the beach. In the morning when I took my walk the blue stone caught my eye.

Built for Speed - Not Really

these owls beat their wings in a slow, moth-like pattern which allows them to be agile enough to make their way through tight forested areas in silence. they are noted for speed when they find prey and do a precise dive into the snow to capture their meal

Wingspan

Check out this wingspan of the Great Gray Owl! It is anywhere from 142 cm to 152 cm &, despite this, is not the heaviest owl!

Iceberg in Twillingate

This shot was an absolute masterpiece for a photographer and luck.

Great Gray Owl in Flight!

The Great Grey is the provincial bird emblem of Manitoba, where it is seen more regularly than elsewhere in Canada.

Foxes

I adore foxes, highlight of my photography career is when the babies emerge from their dens. I've been watching the same den for years, always holding my breath if the foxes will come back. Countless hours to grab this shot.

Northern Lights

I spend alot of nights out taking long exposures of the night skies. I enjoy the peace, the wonder. Looking up my problems feel soo small. Most nights I don't end up with anything too wild, but this night the Northern lights kicked up quick and without warning.

Jasper Fire

There is no more epic a transformation than what has occurred in Jasper National Park. It was simply ravaged. 325 square kilometers. This is but a slice for you to see.

Emerald Lake Lodge

This place in Yoho National Park is off the charts and celebrated by photographers from around the world. I had the pleasure of being there for an epic evening. Great beer, awesome olives, and a picture for the archives. Emerald Lake Lodge never disappoints. It is photogenic any time of year,

Bighorn Sunrays

This picture is a culmination of many days in Jasper, Alberta this winter to capture wildlife returning to the fire ravaged town and surrounding area of Jasper. Before sunrise I hiked up onto a cliff to get a unique Bighorn sheep picture. This was the only morning that the sun showed it's beautiful rays to me but I was able to get the shot I had envisioned. The entire mountain in the background is a black, charred mass of burnt trees from top to bottom and just a slice of the magnitude of the fires that changed the landscape for this generation. Over 80,000 acres was burnt or around 325 square kilometers! This young sheep is a harbinger for future hope with the first Spring since the fires on the horizon.

Montmorency in the distance

On our way back from our 4th annual Canada Day across Canada, we took a minor detour onto Orleans Island. I noticed I could see Montmorency from the island and the foreground looked wonderful.

Between Stillness and Light

This picture is a culmination of many days in Jasper, Alberta this winter to capture wildlife returning to the fire ravaged town and surrounding area of Jasper. It's before sunrise and I hiked up onto a cliff in complete darkness to get a unique Bighorn sheep picture. With a three second exposure and a timer I was finally able to get the light trail of a passing vehicle in the valley below. It took many tries. In the foreground I used a flashlight to light paint the young Bighorn sheep so that it would be visible in the exposure.

Timeless Tranquility

Located within the National Historic Site of Hatley Park at Royal Roads University in Colwood, BC, the Japanese gardens were established in the early 20th century. Today, it's provides tranquility and mental wellness for both the university community and the public. These gardens represent a living piece of history, highlighting Japanese landscape design principles and delivering a culturally enriching experience open to everyone. I enjoyed a stroll through the gardens on this late fall day after most the leaves had fallen... it's beautifully impressive in all seasons.

Burnt Borders

Elk return to Jasper after a devastating fire. Burnt trees like a charcoal frame add drama to a scene that is still too hard for many displaced locals to talk about. Many of them will never return but the animals have no other options but to adapt to their new surroundings.

Big boar grizzly

A grizzly boar makes eye contact while I'm in the safety of my vehicle.....and a large lens!
