Manitoba, Up Close and Far Away
Manitoba is full of things worth stopping for: the red crown of a woodpecker, a bee dusted gold with pollen, fog settling over a quiet field. Every creature has its own way of being in the world, and this is where I share the ones I have found. Wander through bird photography, macro, prairie landscapes, and black and white, and stay as long as you like.
What I love to photograph
Some days it is a heron on the river, other days a single drop of dew. Whatever the subject, I am happiest out there looking, so come take a look with me.
Birds
Manitoba birds, in flight and at rest.
Prairie landscape
Fog, big skies, and open prairie.
Black & white
Weathered buildings, stormy skies, and city streets in black and white.
Stories from the field
The best moments outdoors are rarely planned. These are the stories behind the frames, told as I remember them.

Manitoba bird photography
From tiny hummingbirds to white pelicans with wings that spread nearly nine feet, Manitoba is a remarkable place to watch birds, and it is where most of my photographs begin. Every species has its own page with the story behind the photographs and a gallery of my favourite frames. Here is a small sample from the collection.
