This philosophy serves as a reminder that capturing a fleeting, meaningful moment with a smartphone or a basic point-and-shoot is infinitely better than missing it entirely while your professional DSLR sits at home. Shot with an old Samsung S10. #baldeagle #Eagles #wildlifephotography

Loved the busyness of this old house up in Nanaimo, BC; there was so much to see in the frame. I went back to take another photo a year or so later, and it had been bulldozed down for condos. #oldhouse #followers

This is a shot of a Black Bear in 2012 that I took in Whistler and Blackcomb mountains along the Sea-to-Sky corridor. I liked looking into its eyes, where one was looking right at me, and the other was looking to the far right. #blackbear #wildlifephotography #whistlerblackcomb #followers

On a grizzly tour in the Salish Sea/Bute Inlet, I had the opportunity to observe wild grizzlies wading through the river in search of salmon in their natural habitat. This is definitely on my bucket list to do again. #grizzlybear #Grizzlies #wildlifephotography #salishsea #buteinlet #followers
