Alberta Rocky Mountain Landscapes
I love the feeling of isolation that can be found out here. The immensity of the mountains, a large forest that would be easy to get lost in. Giant lakes that stretch further than the eye can see. It is

Magpie lounging around
It was a hot day, and this magpie was walking around casually, not bothered by anyone around. It wasn't long before the bird decided to lounge and lean over the edge here. I was surprised, as I have never

Monomad: Mistaya Canyon
Mistaya Canyon is located between Banff and Jasper in Alberta. It is in the middle of the Rockies, and the nice thing about this place is that it is enough out of the way that it will often be fairly quiet.

Monomad: Dragonfly Macro
I cherish the moments when I can get a dragonfly sitting still. It can be challenging and nearly impossible at certain times of day. These ones were caught in the morning. They are just waking up and are

Propeller Plane
Planes are much easier to track than birds; being so high up helps. I thought it was interesting to follow a propeller plane; its flight path seemed as smooth as a jet's might have been. It was flying

Calgary Zoo Animals
I always found the zoo was a great place, as many do, to practice photography. It can take quite a bit of patience in the wild to hope to encounter animals and to be off the beaten path for a while hoping

Monomad: Weaselhead Flats Forest
I found myself pulled into a forest; it was like the path became longer and longer, and I didn't want to turn back. I walked and walked until I was surrounded by trees, and the road back seemed even longer

Cherub Statue and Different Versions
These are all pictures of the same statue taken at different times, a year or 2 apart. I think they serve as a great example of how you can get a completely different viewpoint of the same subject and

Among the most recognizable of all butterfly species, the monarch has a distinct colouring and pattern that make it very easy to distinguish. It is no accident, and the vivid orange pattern acts as aposematic

Black-capped Chickadee
They will almost always be on the move, hopping from branch to branch, then flying away. A moment later you will look up and a black-capped chickadee will have returned. They seem more curious than other

The Bow Downtown Calgary
It is among the tallest buildings in Downtown Calgary's impressive skyline; it's hard to believe that there are a few buildings here at this height. This one to me stands out as one of the most

Parade of Wonders Calgary Comic Expo Cosplay
I can't think of a better way to trick hundreds of people into wearing costumes, dressing as their favourite characters, and marching down the street than a cospaly parade. It's a perfect excuse to cut

Monomad: Cosplays at the Calgary Comic Expo Parade of Wonders
There are so many characters and cosplays to keep track of every time I capture these events that the learning never stops. I always see a huge mix of familiar and unfamiliar, and I don't think I will

Penguins at the Calgary Zoo
These birds seem to enjoy each other's company, and with a variety of penguin species under one roof, there seems to be a peaceful coexistence. I see them being playful with others, diving in to go for

Male Mallard Soaking Up The Sun
The sun was beating down, and I could imagine this mallard was feeling it. He walked along the shore for a bit, occasionally digging into his feathers. It edged closer to the water, and I remember really

Testing out Nikon 180-600mm
I upgraded my Nikon 200-500mm lens to the Z Mount 180-600mm lens and took it to Carburn Park on the Bow River today to test it out. The lens is a monster, in a good way. It is all internal zoom, so it
