A favourite memory shot taken in Etosha, on a photo trip. We had been searching for this lion when our vehicle got stuck. The sun was setting fast and we were worried our evening light would be gone, when this guy stood up just feet away. #wildlifephotographer #canonshooter #etosha #wildlife

One of my favorite shots from a trip to Etosha, Namibia in 2014. What a memorable time. #canonphotographer #namibia #etosha #wildlifephotography

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work. snyder.substack.com/p/twenty-les...

The wild horses of the Tonto National Forest in Arizona were quite a spectacle to watch. Multiple herds had all come together to the same area to graze and the inevitable bit of posturing ensued between rivals. #wildhorses #wildlifephotography #canonshooter

A white hermelin elegantly leaps through a snowy landscape. These cute animals (stoats or ermines) are threatened by climate change, primarily due to losing their camouflage advantage in snow-free environments.

Those eyes so cunning, and quick. The red foxes were amazing to watch as they cris crossed the ground in a grid in search of food for their kits. Only stopping to feed. #wildlifephotographer #redfox #canonshooter #whatanexperience

Was such a privilege to watch this #redneckedgrebe and its partner build a nest, lay eggs, and take care of them until this first chick hatched over a span of some 50 days. #bird #wildlifephotography #birdlife #preciousmoments #canonshooter #beautifulbc

If there ever was one pivotal moment in my #photography ‚career‘ then it’s probably this image. It taught me to look behind the curtain and embrace #landscapephotography to be more than just an actual representation of reality. Once you make that switch, true creativity sets in!

A black bear watches the river for a returning spawning salmon, and just a few feet away the great blue heron does the same. Both of these beautiful creatures follow the seasons of food that call them back to the same location year after year.

“A band of brothers”. My first photo posted here is of the yellow bellied marmot from the interior of B.C. So fun to watch and photograph, as they learn the ropes of life from mom who sits nearby just out of the photo.
