Male Elk are notable for their impressively large antlers. It is amazing that these large structures are grown new each year by the animals in a period of a few months in spring and summer. Antlers look particularly large in summer when they are encased in velvet—a covering that protects them during growth. In later summer, the velvet is rubbed from the fully grown antlers, revealing the bony structure. Newly cleaned antlers are light grey in color but become stained by rubbing and thrashing through vegetation during the rutting season.
This was the scene before the Aurora Borealis show on Saturday night. Two long clouds stretched across Vancouver, from north to south, as the setting sun painted them pink. Looking down on the north side of the False Creek Seawall and downtown Vancouver. Captured from the Granville Bridge, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada ~ May 7, 2016 💕☁️

As the sun set lower in the sky, and the storm clouds started to dissipate, the pinks and purples started to pop. Shot at 20 seconds with a ND1000(10 stop) filter.

Elk are sociable animals. They are seldom found without other elk nearby. The herd lifestyle is characteristic of animals that live in open country.

The spectacle of the annual winter migration of the Elk Herds from the Rocky Mountain Foothills towards the Ranch Country just Northwest of Calgary.
The winds at Upper Waterton Lake had reportedly reached 45 km/h that day. It was really exciting to watch the dramatic changing light as it hit the peaks. This view of Vimy Peak was taken from the Prince of Wales Hotel.
Waterton Lakes National Park is nestled in the Canadian Rockies. Given the designation of International Peace Park it is one of the lesser known parks in Alberta but the scenery is outstanding, hiking is world renowned, and wildlife are in abundance. This past August, Waterton Lakes National Park and its neighbour to the south, Glacier National Park, received a designation for an International Dark Sky Park.
Male Brewer’s Blackbirds (Euphagus cyanocephalus) watch over colonies by sitting at guard perches. They meet hawks, owls, gulls, and other predators with an alarm call, diving at and sometimes striking them to make them leave. Copyright © Kim Toews/All Rights Reserved.
An overnight dumping of snow coats the slopes of Mt. Seymour Provincial Park. A Seabus crosses Vancouver Harbour on it's way to the City of North Vancouver. Areas of Metro Vancouver woke up to snow and icy roads for the morning commute... and there's still 48 days until winter arrives 😕 Captured during this morning's blue hour from Canada Place in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada ~ November 3, 2017
Coyotes are extremely efficient hunters, and their senses are keen. In fall and early winter, coyotes often hunt in pairs or packs, and the success of a pack increases with its size. Larger packs typically hunt larger animals, although they will capture and eat whatever prey they encounter.
Happy 183rd Birthday Toronto! The Toronto Skyline never fails to amaze me. I hope I can go back someday soon and photograph this beautiful place!
Back to last summer, the smoke from mountain fire was surrounded Vancouver.

A Piercing splendor of a sunrise peeks through the ordinariness of Life to rebirth Hope .. Quote Mrs H.
A low tide night at Porteau Cove Provincial Park. Tide was so low this evening reveal an area along the shore with this large pool of sea water. My friend and I was exploring the area and was worry about the rain will come while we were photographing around. We can actually hear the rain from a distance. It was a cloudy night with a few moment of clear skies during our stay.
I was walking around trying to find my comp and finally got to this spot that can include the entire pool you see here with the milkyway right above it. Although the lights on both ends are a little distracting IMHO... Still, I'm happy with the frame I got!
The light from the left is from Gibsons. And from the right hand side, it is the lights coming from Squamish, BC. There was an aurora alert this evening. But the cloudy night sky was blocking most of the green glow from the direction of where the aurora is (on the right side outside of the frame). But you can see clearly that the purple glow was captured in the shot.
Thank you very much for viewing!
Have a great day!!
If you keep walking past the spot where 99.9% of folks take a picture it gets a lot less busy and you get a very different perspective of the mountains and lake.

Storm clouds approaching on the West Opabin Trail in Yoho National Park. Lucky the rain didn't hit the area when I was hiking there. Sun light breaking through the clouds hitting the Wiwaxy Peaks.
Hope you like it!
