On this trip to the Tantalus Range I was forced to come to terms with the tradeoff that exists in the high alpine mountains: beauty and danger. One of our teammates fell 40 metres from the face of a mountain to the snow below. He was evacuated via helicopter. This picture was taken hours later. The horror of the fall and the peaceful beauty of the sunset demonstrated that the mountains are indifferent to our presence.

We never thought that riding a ferry would be such an exciting part of the trip, cause till now we thought of them more of a way to transport yourself on the other shore. But apparently, we have a thing for boats and no seasickness 🌊

The beautiful thing about living in Vancouver is the access to local, beautiful places like this. On this day, I was stressed out, tired and a little down on my luck. My remedy? Grab a Car Share, grab my camera and head out to the mountains for sunset. The result? This beautiful image that I love. Enjoy.

We were spending the week in Qualicum, BC and decided one evening to take our kayaks out to enjoy the sunset. Shortly after setting out on the water everything calmed down and the water turned to glass. I never thought the ocean could be so calm. The sunset was amazing as well. Purple hues were cast over the mountains in the distance. Everything reflected off the water like a mirror. It felt like we were in a dream.

As I was descending Black Mountain in Cypress, I witnessed some beautiful light diffraction in the air just after the sunset. This gave me a sky graduated in colors from orange to blue. I used my zoom lens to capture this amazing natural effect.

These meadows absolutely blew my mind because I have never seen anything like them in my life. Everywhere you look you see alpine flowers and tall pointy trees, surrounded by miraculous mountains and lakes around each bend. Would very much recommend this Hike to Taylor Meadows any day.

At the lake where I spent the most time during my childhood, this particular moment was still one I had never seen before. The combination of sun and fog was spectacular as it danced among the layers of forest that sat above the lake.

This photo is at Brandywine Falls, BC, Canada. I am caught standing in awe, wearing my Grey Wolf Spirithood coat. During this photo, ice sickles were falling off the edge and making this loud hollow banging noise. It was pretty haunting.

We don’t get nearly enough clear days in Vancouver, but when we do the views everywhere are spectacular. This photo was taken from the beach just north of the University of British Columbia campus.

Herons regularly fish along the shores of Vancouver but on this warm August Sunday the tide was out in the afternoon so the beaches will filled with playing dogs and children, making much fewer place for the herons to fish. I found this one a ways from the popular beaches fishing peacefully till I bothered him by snapping some photos.

While driving to Whistler/Blackcomb on a late Friday evening with the hope of taking pictures for the weekend, the roads were deserted and the sun was setting. The highway, Interstate 90, offered few clear views of the surrounding area. As I came around a curve approaching Anvil Island, a brief opening of a view lended itself to see the bay converging with the mountains with the light fading fast. I stood on a jersey barrier the width of a balance-beam off Interstate 90 balanced with the camera over my head and the viewfinder tilted down to frame the shot. Maybe 50% luck, 50% balance.

On my hike in BC, I passed through this area - the trees shift happened unexpectedly. At first, you’re in an area of low lying bushes and ferns and then – BAM – 100+ foot tall pines everywhere. It’s a beautiful area to move through and happy I savored the moment.

Everyone’s seen the iconic Capilano Suspension Bridge in Vancouver, BC. What’s less often seen are the views from the tree canopy walk on the other side of the bridge. Hundreds of years-old Douglas Fir trees tower high above you as you make your way from platform to platform. These trees aren’t Redwoods, but don’t be fooled, they’re massive and awe-inspiring all the same.

The grouse grind is unique and definitive of the Vancouver people. To me - the city lacked the ‘umph’ and culture of a special city, but that’s because its surrounded by gorgeous nature in all directions. Why stay in the city on the weekends – the grouse grind exemplifies this outdoorsy spirit. A hike that’s 2.9 km long but during those you gain 853 meters of elevation. Shot this while i still had the energy when the treeline transitioned.

This bridge is a staple in my hometown of Vancouver. I like to think this image represents the idea of canceling the unnecessary noise on the outside and focusing on the task at hand. Almost like a perspective of ‘tunnel vision.’

I was in Vancouver, BC visiting a college, and my family and I decided to spend the day in Stanley Park. Near the end of the day, as the sun was starting to go down, we walked onto Lions Gate Bridge, and I saw a sliver of light shining on the lighthouse below us, so I pulled out my camera and took a shot before it disappeared.

We got lucky with the weather and the timing as it was November in Vancouver, which often means cloudy skies. This day the sky was clear and when we decided to take a walk on the Iona Spit Trail the timing worked out perfectly as we headed back the sun had just set. The water was calm and there were many cranes on the water.
