Timing is everything in photography. Waking up at 4:00 am, I set out for a sunrise shot of Bow Lake Banff, Alberta. I only had a couple of minutes to wade through chest high snow from the parking area to the lake before the sun came up. Just by chance, the minute I made it to a little footbridge at the lake a skier was crossing the lake to head off into the backcountry at the perfect spot, at the perfect time for me to quickly snap this image.
Locked in for the winter months, a cluster of grass stands alone near the shore of Spillway Lake in Kananaskis.
I found this little creek some time ago on one of my quick trips to the coast. It is a tucked away gem near the town of Whistler. On my most recent visit to the area I decided to make a stop and attempt to document it. This is my favourite shot I walked away with. This is actually what this forest looks like. The green in the costal forests are almost surreal. From a technical aspect photographing this area is extremely hard due to the complexity of the forest. I found by utilizing the creek, I was able to break the complexity of the forest and convey a natural path for the audience’s eyes to follow.
