Many players at the World Cup got their start in the streets of the towns and cities they grew up in. Before the money, before the fame, and before the glory, their games were played on roads, pavements, and small fields. There was no celebrity status involved: they played for the love of the game. It brought them into another own world, and for a few moments, they could share the world with those around them. While our family went up ahead, it was just the boy and the ball: for a few moments, I got to step into the world that so many individuals around the world live and breathe in.

The Alberta prairies are way underrated! I’m usually quite underwhelmed by the vast emptiness of the prairies, but throw in some backlit cows and baby, you’ve got one heck of an image!

This is where I spent my Saturday morning. How about you? Bubblers are the people who go out to this lake to see the methane bubbles that appear under the surface of the ice. I was on the verge of freezing to death and had to retreat into the van but the others managed to catch a glimpse of them. I regret it though- next time I’d lose a toe for the photo. For now, I’m not yet a bubbler!

Waking up at 4am was worth it! Having such a blast at Abraham Lake with the Digital Media class from Prairie College.

Waking up at 4am to drive to Abraham Lake was worth the epic sunrise and nearly losing a toe to frostbite

The Athabasca Glacier is one of the six principal 'toes' of the Columbia Icefield, located in the Canadian Rockies. The glacier currently loses depth at a rate of about 5 metres per year and has receded more than 1.5 km and lost over half of its volume in the past 125 years

First trip to the nature of Canada. i’m from Europe so this is pretty special for me especially at the age of 18. Even saw some bears, Canada has some really incredible nature. The nature wasn’t perfect but it made my photos look moody and i like that a lot. This was the first holiday i went on where i was into photography so it was amazing to explore the nature as well as the functions and every detail about my camera.

On my way to Johnston Canyon in Banff when this guy poked its white face out in the blue. I had to drive a bit to find a safe place to stop and get out to take the picture, but I think it turned out ok. This is the kind of image that gives me pause and to reflect on the forces that created the rockies those millions of years ago. What a great way to time travel.

After a 6 mile hike to Big Beehive in Banff National Park turned into 13 miles, this was one of the last photos I took while strolling back along Lake Louise. We were coming around from the back of the lake around 8pm, tired and in awe of the blue water and the incredible mountains that towered over us. This one was all about the journey, but the destinations were pretty awesome too.

My buddy Jeff and I tried to catch the “blue hour” at Banff yesterday. The clouds got in the way but not before we were able to catch a hint of emerging sunshine contrasted with the blue of the mountains before us. For me, I wished the moment lasted longer; it is quite interesting standing on a frozen lake surrounded by these majestic peaks.

Sometimes, when you are surrounded by a collection of great shots, turning around and lookng up can give a whole new look to your surroundings. That’s what happened here! While my buddy Jeff and I were focused on the mountains directly ahead of us, I turned 180 degrees and saw the first sliver of sun hitting the mountain behind us. I quickly turned around to capture the moment, and it was moment because the sun disappeared very quickly… I think I was lucky.

There is something about a huge mountain reflection in a lake that just puts you at ease. Here is another picture from my trip to the Canadian Rockies. Lake Minnewanka at Sunrise.

Two Jack Lake is one of my favorite places to return to. The sunrises here are spectacular as the light hits Rundle Mountain and it reflects in the water. On this particular morning I noticed these stepping stones lent to give me the perfect composition for the spectacular background scenery. Looking back at this picture reminds me how peaceful it is at this lake in the early hours of the day.

We had just finished up our day out in the wilderness of banff, and we were driving back into town. traffic slowed a bit, and we wondered what was going on. As we seemed to get close to what was causing the delay, I happened to look out my window and see this beautiful buck casually grazing. Thankfully my camera was sitting on my lap, and while we were sitting there, I was able to snap this picture.

It was coming on the tail end of our North American road trip. Alberta was the final destination after driving up the Pacific Coast. As soon as we crossed from British Columbia into Alberta, this mother Grizzly and her cub were eating flowers beside the road. I had just bought a super zoom specifically for this trip and I’m so thankful I did. We pulled over on the other side of the road and we were dead silent - Knowing how bears can be. My first time seeing a Grizzly and my first time in Alberta.
