I had a great day yesterday shooting beautiful Bald Eagles in Harrison Mills. They were busy eating Chum Salmon. Was nice to see all the spawning salmon and also the carcasses. What a cool circle of life! Looking forward to more winter eagle shooting in the Fraser Valley and Squamish! I think this may be the best shot I've ever taken.

Home is where you hang your laundry
Idyllic location nestled up against the riverbank of the Alouette River (with the opposite side of the float home, facing the Pitt River).
This image was captured by boat on the southern arm of the scenic Alouette River.
Junction point where two rivers meet. The Alouette River flowing into Pitt River.
You can also capture this area by foot, but nothing compares to experiencing this life style by floating into the scene and becoming one with the peacefulness and beauty that 'surrounds' you.

False Creek
Vancouver
British Columbia,
Canada
False Creek is a short inlet in the heart of Vancouver. It separates downtown from the rest of the city. It was named by George Henry Richards during his Hydrographic survey of 1856-63. George Richards named False Creek during his survey of the coast in the mid-19th century. While traveling along the south side of the Burrard Inlet, he thought he was traversing a creek; upon discovering his error, he gave the waterway its modern name. Wikipedia

Pitt Lake is the second-largest lake in the Lower Mainland of British Columbia. About 53.5 square kilometres in area, it is about 25 km long and about 4.5 km wide at its widest. It is one of the world's relatively few tidal lakes, and among the largest. In Pitt Lake, there is on average a three foot tide range; thus Pitt Lake is separated from sea level and tidal waters during most hours of each day during the 15 foot tide cycle of the Pitt River and Strait of Georgia estuary immediately downstream.The lake's southern tip is 20 km upstream from The Pitt River confluence with the Fraser River and is 40 km east of Downtown Vancouver.
Pitt Lake is in a typical U-shaped glacial valley in the Pacific Ranges of the Coast Mountains. The overdeepening of the lower end of the valley over the span of the Wisconsin glaciation created a trough over 140 m below current sea level. After initial glacial retreat at around 13,000 years ago a saltwater fjord occupied this basin when relative sea levels were still ca 120 to 140m above current levels in the region. Unlike neighbouring Indian Arm and Howe Sound farther west, this fjord basin became partly cut off from tidal waters by sedimentation of the lower Fraser River ca 10,500 years ago, and Pitt Lake is now considered a tidal fjord lake.
Pitt Lake is the second largest of a series of north-south oriented fjord-lakes incising the southern slopes of the Pacific Ranges, the largest being Harrison Lake located 60 km to the east. The other fjord-lakes include Coquitlam Lake, Alouette Lake, Stave Lake, and Chehalis Lake.
The Pitt River drains into the northern end of Pitt Lake. The western shore of Pitt Lake are protected within Pinecone Burke Provincial Park, while most of the eastern shore are protected within Golden Ears Provincial Park. The southern end of Pitt Lake features an extensive marshland called Pitt Polder. While most of this marshland has since been drained for agricultural use, the northernmost portion is strictly protected in order to provide critical habitat for migratory birds.
Communities
The community of Pitt Meadows and the First Nations reserve of Pitt Lake Indian Reserve 5 are located at the southern end of the lake. Just southwest of the lake is the community of Port Coquitlam, which is across the Pitt River from Pitt Meadows. At the north end of the lake is a locality named Alvin, which is a transport and shipping point for logging companies and their employees.

White Knuckled driving conditions through the Thompson–Nicola Regional district
Sub-zero temperatures.
The day before making this precarious trek through the Central Interior of BC, Canada , the news reported vehicles sliding off the road in all directions at this precise location.
Descending the highway hill was nerve racking to say the least, however I was in capable hands.
The pick-up truck in this image decided to travel down the center of road, in search of better traction.
As beautiful as this mountain highway is, wintery conditions can serve to be treacherous.

8:52 - Leading lines
The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say....

I had a special encounter with this beautiful Bald Eagle today. They don't often allow you to get so close so it was a priviledge.
Squeezing in an evening at Lighthouse Park. As the rain was coming, I was hoping for some interesting clouds. It didn't seem that good while I was there, but the result is close to what I was looking for.
I tried some much longer exposures as it became darker, but it quickly became apparent I need to practise more. When ready to use my headlamp to find the way back through the park to the car, I realized I had used it to read a story to my son on the deck the night before! I stumbled along.
Fisgard and Race Rocks were the first lighthouses built on the West Coast of Canada. Fisgard protects the entrance to Esquimalt Harbour the home of the Pacific Fleet of the Royal Canadian Navy.

This is located in the bottom of a deep valley in British Columbia. North East of Whistler a few hundred miles. I don't remember the exact name of the place but will find it and map it... The entire valley was covered in places like this. After looking at this image I now wish I would have used a different shutter speed to freeze the ducks on the pond.
