With a current heat warning in place for parts of BC - it felt like a good time to share something a little cooler!

Such a wealth of textures and patterns in the lavender fields of Provence

A few recent encounters in Alberta

The scent of lavender, buzzing bees and the lines, colours and textures of Provence. This image was shot after sunset with the last glow of the light in the sky. #provence #lavender

Stormy skies above this beautiful heart shaped tree in the lavender fields of Provence whilst scouting for an upcoming workshop. #lavenderfields

Met this handsome fellow whilst journeying home from Waterton recently. #raven

Ferns in the mid afternoon

I'd love to understand the relationships in this image!

A few details from the coast

Just returned from leading a workshop in beautiful Haida Gwaii. The beauty of this archipelago is directly linked to the stories of its people and the fluidity of boundaries between people and place. #haidagwaii

One of my favourite mountains and some very wet and cold feet for this one

Immense power!

A misty morning in the forest - doing my best to simplify some complex scenes. #forestphotography #woodlandphotography #BC #Canada

Nothing better than escaping to the mountains. Happy Friday everyone!

Face to face with a raven as I lay on my belly in the snow. #raven

A little bit of mood from Scotland

The epic majesty of Antarctica

International day of forests Some words from Dr. Suzanne Simard: "Ecosystems are so similar to human societies—they’re built on relationships. The stronger those are, the more resilient the system." #internationaldayofforests #drsuzannesimard

Morning light breaks through the mist rising on the bog following a few days of intense rainfall

False Hellebore - One of my favourites with its dark green colour and fleshy leaves.

I find it so interesting, the notion of 'there's nothing to shoot'. The idea that 'classic' conditions a location is known for are not present. In my experience, there's always something to shoot and the lack of classic conditions may cause you to search out and find unexpected beauty.

Rock sculpted by water and with some nice frost textures to boot. No tripod for this one, just a hand-held exposure bracket to deal with the dynamic range. #naturephotography #landscapephotography
