New Westminster, B.C, sent summer off with a bang of fireworks on August 27, 2022. Festivities earlier in the day included artisan market vendors and exhibitors. Here are my favourite photos that I shot from my balcony.
I was camping in the Thompson-Okanagan region of B.C., in June 2020 when during one of my walks I happened across two short-eared owls. I was not too close, but my super-telephoto lens brought me in closer for a look as they were seemingly involved in sibling preening behaviour....
A highlight of my 10 day campervan trip throughout BC, Banff, and Jasper National Park in September, 2020, was a visit to the historic town of Barkerville, BC. Barkerville is located near the Cariboo Mountains 80 kilometers east of Quesnel. The secondary road (Highway 26) off from the main...
In mid September, 2020, I ventured from my home in Vancouver, B.C., on a 10 day camper van road trip and headed points north to escape the smoke from forest fires in adjacent U.S. states. It wasn’t an easy escape, the smoke was still pretty thick when I overnighted...
The stars lined up for me this summer (2020) as I was able to attend Jess Findlay Photography’s annual Manning Park Wildlife and Mountain Vistas multi-day workshop from July 12th – July 15th.

Near the end of June, 2020, I set out on a 5 day day camping trip to explore the Sea to Sky Highway (route 99) up to Lillooet then looped back down through Cache Creek and Route 5 through Kamloops, Merritt, Hope, then home via the Trans Canada Route...
With COVID-19 restrictions my travels abroad came to an abrupt halt since March 2020. The silver lining, however, was that exploring my “own backyard” here in the province of British Columbia (B.C.) was an exciting new lure since June 1st, 2020 when the provincial health authorities allowed resident-only camping...
I was pretty fortunate to have a cloudless four day camping weekend in Tofino, British Columbia, in mid March, 2020. Tofino is a small community on the West-side of Vancouver Island and is known for its spectacular scenery and amazing outdoor experiences. During my short stay I took in...
A highlight of my van camping trip in March, 2020, to Tofino on the West-side of Vancouver Island, British Columbia (BC), was Long Beach within Pacific Rim National Park. It’s considered a bit of a surfers paradise (albeit cold at 7 to 16 degrees Celsius) producing waves for stoked...
I was fortunate enough to have installed the Meetup app on my smartphone in early February 2020 and soon discovered the Vancouver Photoxperience group and signed up for a photo tour of the Orpheum Theatre. The event organizers arranged the tour for 30 people and with many thanks to...
