52, living in Banff, Alberta. Kayaking when I want to feel like a seal, gravel biking when I want to feel like a potato in a rock tumbler.

I can over to bushy because the alternative was too depressing with all of the political posts about the orange nightmare and what he’s doing to America and Americans….. I’ll go back to photography after this I promise….

It’s National Winter Paddling Day on Sunday, January 19th….. it’s supposed to be a high of -19C here that day so I’m sad to say I don’t think I’ll be participating….. will have to make due with memories of winter paddles past….. like this one on Moraine Lake. I had to break ice to find open water!

Sometimes I paddle with Orca and other sea life! Not the best picture but we were a ways away and afloat at that! #orca #killerwhale #hunting #breach #johnstonestrait #vancouverisland #britishcolumbia #nature #outside #paddling #kayak #photography

If you haven’t figured it out already, I love paddling and reflections…… here’s a favourite shot of my wife paddling on Bow Lake a few years back… #paddling #kayak #bowlake #banffnationalpark #nature #outside #photography #landscape

Pretty spectacular lighting this night….. Tunnel Mountain (left) and Rundle Mountain (right) reflected in Vermillion Lake with just a hint of an aurora in the sky. #vermillionlake #tunnelmountain #rundlemountain #reflections #banff #banffnationalpark #nature #outside #stars #night #photography
Stunning light on Vermillion Lakes, purple mountains reflected in the lake.

Early season paddling on Emerald Lake, BC
Kayaker and mountains reflected in Emerald Lake, BC. The water is so calm it’s hard to tell which is the reflection and which is the paddler….

Camping set up in Maligne Lake, Jasper NP….. it’s amazing how strong lights and a hammock can enhance a kayak camping trip in the Rockies!

Not really sure where to start, it’s been a long time since I joined a new social media site…. Especially one where I don’t really know anyone… I think I’ll start with sharing some of my favourite photos from years past…. Photos I’ve taken and had taken of me….
