Those who leave their country of origin, as I have, are often divided between two lands that they call home. Sometimes feeling like you belong to both and sometimes as if you belong to neither. The adoptive country that welcomed you and has so much to offer (the future, if you will) and the country whose earth you first walked on as a child, that houses your roots. The Okanagan, with its hills and vineyards, constantly reminds me of central Italy - particularly Tuscany and Marche (where I grew up in my teen years). If I close my eyes for a moment, breathe it all in, I'm almost there.

Vaseux is a fairly photogenic lake. Combine it with an orange sunset and crazy, stormy clouds, and you get to stare at quite a dramatic display of what nature has to offer.
Six months ago we became victims of an arson fire. It feels as if it rained for a long time. Now that the rain has stopped, we're left with clouds and time to reflect.
This photo is similar to the one from yesterday but it portrays a different lake and a lusher landscape.
Too late for the morning fog, too early for the night fog. Sadly, I have to work. But I'll go again, it's on my bucket list to get a good photo of Vancouver sticking out of the fog.
The sky tonight was very pretty. An hour after I took this photo, the whole sky turned bright orange.
A common misconception in the world of photography is that wide-angle lenses serve the purpose of getting everything in the frame. When used in such a fashion, you'll definitely capture it all, but most subjects in the photo will be distant, tiny, and virtually indistinguishable. Although this can work occasionally, the real advantage of such a lens is the ability to include a foreground subject and still have room to show the context in which it resides. The wide-angle nature of the lens will then further lead the eye from the subject in the foreground to the rest of the image. I shot this photo at 16mm to capture both these interesting branches and the dramatic sky.
In 1987 I visited the first nations village of Ahousat on Flores Island on the west coast of Vancouver Island. Over the course of two long weekends (while my wife worked to set up the new school library) I was free to wander with my camera, talk to anybody I met, and take pictures of anything.

On our way to Up the Creek Bed and Breakfast. Another 23 klm past Telegraph Creek which is 113 klm on a gravel road from Dease Lake, Northern British Columbia.
Spring is finally upon us. This being Canada, however, we are still seeing evidence that winter was here in full force.
