This past weekend I met up with @morgancarmont to go explore the forests of #VancouverIsland. To say we had an epic weekend would be an understatement.

Amongst our many adventures, we found a new #oldgrowthforest to explore and I had to take a photo in front of one - the size of them is just incomprehensible otherwise. For reference, I am over 187cm tall. This single Big Leaf Maple is easily 5m+ diameter at its base.

"In The Hand"

Photo taken in Calgary's Prince's Island Park after 24 hours of constant snowfall. Moments earlier a chevron of ducks had winged their way overhead, which would have been perfect for the image. Lesson learned: a camera only counts if its in your hand.

"Parallax View"

View of Mount Temple, Canadian Rockies, on the border between Alberta and British Columbia, near Lake Louise. Taken through the glass dome observation roof of a Rocky Mountaineer train car, during my summer vacation travels in 2023.
