From Sea to Sky
It had been a while since last seeing the lights. On the final evening of a ten day staycation, the weather cleared as astronomical twilight approached, revealing a sensational display of the Aurora Borealis dancing over the Squamish estuary and Garibaldi Provincial Park.

Hello
Late summer salmon runs bring bears to the rivers. I watched it fish casually for salmon brains in a secluded section of the river full of fish in shallow streams.
Fall Mountain Biking
I think it just speaks for itself, there is just nothing like it, anywhere. Slabs, tacky dirt, and kick-arse autumn colours!
Sunrise in the woods
Sneaking in pre-dawn in hopes of nabbing some close ups in golden light. No luck, but still beautiful. I'll take the L.
Vancouver Island Colours
Autumn Colours and mild temperatures in the forests of the island.
Final minute
That last moment, you watched it sweep away and that's it.
First rays
In the summer months, the sun rises at inconvenient hours. Honestly though, could you enjoy a nicer morning coffee view?
Port Renfrew
The Milky Way on July 20, 2020. A summer night by the lake away from the light pollution is such a treat. Looking forward to more nights like this in 2021. T'is the season...
Bobcat
I got very lucky on this day. Managed to put eyes on one of these very illusive wild cats thanks to the snowfall creating a white backdrop for it's silhouette. I managed to anticipate a decent point of view with little forest clutter between me and this curious Bobcat.

Winter Sunrise
The South-Western face of Mount Garibaldi sits deep in the shadows as a small gap in the distant Eastern clouds allows a direct beam from the sun to illuminate the Eastern side of the summit.
Mighty Mount Robson
Bucket list trip success. Always wanted to visit here. A solid hike, with significant payoff. This sunset while we sat and ate dinner, completely alone by the lake shore is one I will treasure for life.
Mamquam Moonrise
The full moon rises as the sun sets. In the Winter, when the elements align, the results are astounding.
Lunch Break
Adult Bald Eagle takes a rest from gorging on Salmon to soak up some sun and dry out.
Kauai Sunset
The last sunset from our week on Kauai. I can still feel the warm breeze and smell the delicious burrito I ate just before this.
Insomniac
This Black Bear should be hibernating but is instead eating the late spawning Coho and hanging around in popular areas for recreational humans and dog walkers.
