A small piece of land is left undeveloped near the Bow River in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
Check out an album containing more of my photos shot in 2002.

Thompson River
Kamloops, B.C.
It's been cold here (-11 C during the day and -16 overnight). But you don't really mind if there is beautiful sunshine and no wind.
North Thompson River,
Kamloops B.C.
As I watched great pieces of ice move past in the river in a slow motion flow, the sunlight glistening upon them, I stopped thinking about how much I hate the cold weather. It's amazing what sunshine and blue sky can do to one's thoughts!
I spotted this decorative garland in Annapolis Royal and being a sucker for textures and shingles I couldn't resist a quick shot of it. I looks like it may have weathered a few storms!
'Where's the Flux Capacitor?' I thought this title seemed appropriate for this shot. Gauges and copper galore, this is the German Still (or part of) at the Ironworks Micro Distillery - her name is Berghitte. I cannot tell you how good this place smells!
I haven’t seen too many of these speedsters on the ground before, so I was kind of happy to catch this happy little one bouncing around the trail at Point Pelee.
This deer had her face stuck in the snow rooting for food, when she suddenly snapped up giving me this silly snow face look.

Broken Group Islands
Barkley Sound, B.C.
I probably couldn't have gotten a better pose out of these three birds. They are sitting atop a rocky islet in the waters of Barkley Sound, just south of Ucluelet, B.C. In the distance behind them are the mountains of Vancouver Island; the most distant snow-capped ones are about 100 km away.
This islet is part of the Broken Group Islands, a scattering of over 100 small islands and islets found in Barkley Sound off the west coast of Vancouver Island. Together with Long Beach and the West Coast Trail, the Broken Group is part of Pacific Rim National Park.
... after the floodwaters recede.
Across the pond (which is still a bit larger than usual) are the abandoned buildings of Tranquille
Train trip #22
Jasper National Park
I've always loved this part of the drive through the Park but this utterly surpassed the view from the highway. It was a place I'd never even seen before and I couldn't even place quite where the highway would be. It was like a new world.
The swimmers have left. A gentleman fishing still waits for a bite. It's quiet. One can even hear the small ripples on the lake. Yes, this is a quiet time, a good time.

A bit of sunlight during a lunch time stroll on a cold winter afternoon in Toronto Canada.

Wanna Buy Me A Coffee?
Contrary to some peoples' perception, I do actually take photographs at different times of the day. Granted I perhaps don't do it as often as I should but time restraints usually tend to play a part in that. This was a must shoot, stop the car moment. This house just looked so inviting in the last of the afternoon sunlight especially with their pretty floral and pumpkin display.
Taken in the Annapolis Valley.
A beautiful capture of a great country meadow on a peaceful afternoon in Southwestern Ontario Canada.
The wild turkey family made an appearance at our campsite and clawed through the undergrowth in search of food. I was busy cooking breakfast when I heard the scratching and turned around to see them 15 feet away. Mom and her 8 poults weren't afraid of me so long as I kept a distance. They moved along in search of more food once I was able to retrieve my camera.
Pinery Prov Park
Lambton Shores, ON
Not quite as lively in colour as my last upload, but still sticking with Fall Colours. I loved this old shed/summer house surrounded by all the wild Fall shrubbery/scrub.
as seen from Neys Provincial Park, after sunset. Beyond the tiny Barclay Islands, in the distance you can see the much larger Slate Islands Provincial Park, home to about 200 woodland caribou.
I have photographed this lighthouse so many times now and I don't know what it is about the location, but I never seem to be entirely happy with the results.I thought I would try a pano this time. I find what the eye sees is so amazing, the rocks are gorgeous, but my photos just don't translate. Still, I keep trying. 5 images stitched. (Birds making a come back :o)
One of Nova Scotia's 10 living history attractions, the Hector Heritage Quay Interpretation Centre tells the story of 18th-century Scottish migration to the New World and the role of Ship Hector in making Pictou the “Birthplace of New Scotland”.
Unfortunately 'The Hector' Ship undergoing repairs and will be for a long time.
Wild Pacific Trail
Ucluelet, B.C.
I wish I'd had more time in Ucluelet. This wonderful trail was just a 5 minute walk from my B&B but I hardly had any time to walk along it.
Ranch along Paul Lake Road,
Kamloops, B.C.
By this picturesque old corral and cabin, the cows munch happily in the little strip of land which bears green grasses. I think the strip is a little lower than the surrounding land and holds what little moisture there is. To the left, there is a small pond.
These leading 'water lines' stopped us in our tracks, such a pretty spot, once I had never been to before, will definitely be going again.
Hard to believe that this place has been abandoned and in bad shape for over 10 years. Gorgeous place.

No April foolin' here, this is one of my favourite places to hang out.

Taken April 7th, shortly after this picture I broke my knee in a snowmobile accident. After bouncing around on the back of a qamutik for an hour, I was medivaced to Ottawa for surgery.
I only have the use of one leg for the next few weeks, very frustrating, when I'm normally quite active.
Although Environment Canada issued a Storm Watch, and despite an ominous sky, all we got that evening was a rain shower.
While at Emerald Lake (see www.flickr.com/photos/115540984@N02/20328054333) and enjoying a beer I spotted a few loons in the distance, that kept my attention for a long time. I wanted to make a picture but everytime when I pointed my camera, they swam further, leaving me with suboptimal results. So I ordered another beer, forgot about them, and left after een hour or so. When crossing the bridge -25 meters further- however they were swimming both under my nose, and I hurriedly took my camera, and just got this only picture that shows the magnificence of this amazing bird. I cursed myself afterwards, missing the opportunities but i am still happy with this result.
From 11 june till the 25th of July, I traveled in Canada. Starting in Brighton Ontario, where my sister lives at the border of an amazing part of lake Ontario, I flew to Vancouver, and Vancouver island where I took the boat at Port Hardy to take part 1 of the Inside passage, to Prince Rupert in BC. Two days later I took part 2 to Skagway in Alaska. When coming from Skagway Alaska, you can take the train to Carcross. it is a very scenic train ride that halts at Bennet lake.
And then to Whitehorse and further on by car to Kluane National park in the Yukon district. Whitehorse is situated at the border of the Yukon. Frow there I flew back to Vancouver, rented a car, and traveled three weeks in the BC- and Alberta Rockies, visiting the famous, and less famous Nature parks like Banff and Jasper. Last few days back to Brighton Ontario to enjoy lake Ontario once more, before going home. A picture of my itinerary can be found on Facebook (www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10152940536581759&set...).
4000 pictures later, it is quite a task to show the right stuff, although the stunning scenery guarantees at least a few great shots to share. Objective will be to make a book (for myself mainly), and that might take a while.
I hope you will enjoy the impression of my travel, one that equals earlier journeys to Alaska and south America, this journey was the first in the digital era, and equally intensive because of all the hiking activities every day on and on. I loved every minute of it.
