Is there anything more magical than fog moving through a world class landscape?

Fog is the icing on the cake and lucky for me, it's fairly common at the Bay of Fundy.

I expect this place will become a regular haunt for me and I can't wait to show you what I make.

Thanks for reading

One of my last storm-watching shots from Vancouver Island.

Now that I'm living on the East Coast of Canada, I'm hoping we get some amazing waves during those legendary Nor'easters.

Watch this space.

Thanks for looking

While arguing over who gets to use the 100-200mm telephoto lens, things get rather tense between Brent and me.

I'm not sure the shot is even worth the drama. Not only does he keep telling 'pork pies' about having a girlfriend but he refuses to get out of my shot once AGAIN.

Despite these unbearable hardships I still somehow manage to capture a handful of banging shots. The scenery is on such an epic scale that I had to ditch the Fuji GFX100s and go back to my Sony A7R4...but will it forgive me for cheating?

After photographing the magic of blue hour at Lake O'Hara, we get up at misery o'clock to hike back up the mountain for our last chance at a spectacular sunrise. The snow and ice are spectacular but will we get the light we hoped for? Things seem to be going well until I lose my breakfast all over the trail and Brent demands that I clean up the mess with my saggy bag of noodles.

Will his claims about having a girlfriend be proven true and will my ultra-wide angle lens be wide enough to capture the majesty of this bucket list location?

There's only one way to find out.

Watch my latest video youtu.be/lcFRzhm86K0

Twas a magical evening in Lunenburg Nova Scotia.

The fog rolled in just after sunset and as the light began to shine, a colossal galley approached the fragile fleet of leisure craft.

Who can say where it came from or where it ventures.

Perhaps it was a ghost ship as it was never seen again after the fog cleared.

I'd say it was my imagination but here is the proof and as we all know, the camera never lies.

Thanks for reading.

In next week's video, you'll get to see two wonders of the world.

Firstly, there'll be the lovely Canadian Swiss Alps as depicted here, but more importantly, there'll be the alpine espresso.

I invited Colin up the mountain for the first time and he cemented his position on all future outings by bringing along a gadget called an Aero Press.

In addition to that, he pre-ground my favourite coffee from Kicking Horse and made the best alpine espresso I have ever tasted.

If only Aero Press and Kicking Horse would get their shit together and sponsor my videos!

I'd actually be happy to blab about their great products because I love em.

It beats the dead-eyed mumbling of the wonders of Square Space that I simply can't bring myself to do.

So err... get in touch.

Thanks for allowing me to trigger you.
