    This is the first time in my life I have seen the Northern LIghts let alone photographed them. Being from southern Ontario, this type of activity doesn't happen that often. They may not have been "dancing" very quickly, but the variety of colours and intensity was amazing. Shot with a Laowa 15mm F2.0 Zero D lens.

    This shot was part of an impromptu shoot in an unexpected snowstorm. The idea behind the shot is a juxtaposition of different themes and imagery: safety, rebellion, thinking for yourself, power, and trying to fit in and find comfort in places where you are not accepted.

    As Valentine's Day approached I knew that I wanted to create an image that was both soft and sensual. I find that red roses can be a little harsh in presentation so went hunting for a flower that would help me create an image that was pleasing to the eye to be able to share with my friends and family. Blush roses are my favourite and I was fortunate to find some that I coaxed to open in time for February 14th.

    On this dewy, fresh morning something compelled me to grab my camera and take a picture as sandhill cranes strolling gracefully through the front yard. Harriet pictured here is, as always, accompanied by Ozzie and their offspring of the season. They have been welcomed morning coffee mates for the last 12 years. The picture captures the calm presence and the dancer's restlessness of these beautiful visitors.

    The Great Reno Balloon Race was this weekend. About a dozen balloon are up and aglow before dawn. This beautiful one was my favorite. Most shooting were using auto white balance, cloudy, or 5600K to keep the yellow cast from the flame. I prefer a white balance which retains the true colors of the balloons, especially for this balloon.

    Location: Upper Glen Alpine Falls. I hiked to this location after sunset. The foreground is a single photo I took during the blue hour for clarity and sharpness. I couldn't wait for the Milky Way at this location due to high bear activity it was almost dark by the time I hiked back to the car. The Milky Way picture is a stack of 19 frames for noise reduction, taken a few hours later over Lake Tahoe, which is just a few miles away from the falls.Edited in Luminar Neo.
