Ricketts Glen is one of the most enchanting areas I've ever photographed. With so many waterfalls one after another I almost overlooked this final waterfall but something about the quality of light over the creek told me I was about to witness something special. As soon as I saw this scene unfolding before my eyes I knew I had just a couple of minutes to capture shot before the sun moved over the horizon. Luckily I found it just in time.

If ever there was a scene that epitomized the essence of Iceland I'd say it's this. Towering mountain peaks, a plunging canyon of vertical green walls and multiple waterfalls carving a path to the ocean. This for me was bliss.

Who said you can't get great images during terrible weather? For me, the grey moodiness of this day makes the image much more atmospheric than those blue sky days. The puffins and gulls didn't seem to mind either.

My very last shoot on Vancouver Island was one to remember. We enjoyed crashing Pacific waves, swooping cormorants and a lovely golden sunset before leaving the Island to find a new home on the other side of the continent.

Bobcats are one of my favourite animals so I count this as one of the best days of my life. We shared a few minutes of this late winter afternoon while she hunted near a lake not too far from my house. I was able to get about 12ft from her to capture this photo and then left her to her duck stalking. I wonder if she caught her buffet.
