Looks like they just keep on building up the mountain in West Kelowna. I shot this from the other side of the lake with an old Pentax Takumar 500mm f/4.5 lens on my Sony a7R. The compression at 500mm gives a nice unique look that I really like. I need to take that lens out …

Wilderness Out There
Living in the middle of the mountains and beautiful lakes is definitely the place to be for me! There are so many good photo opportunities around here and I am super excited to see them all. I love exploring a new year and there seems too be an endless amount of exploring to be done …
Water is Life
I grew up living by the water most of my life and only the times I lived some where with out a big body of water were the times I realized how much I loved it. After years of living in Calgary with out a nice lake or the ocean I am super happy to …
Lake Minnewanka
When I find myself in an environment like this I find it hard to pull myself away. And the fact that this place is an hour & half drive from my house is just wonderful. Considering this place is so close it me I should really be going out here more often. I think I’ll …
Misty Mountains
My friend and I randomly ended up taking a hike up this trail one day when we drive my Westfalia out the mountains. We were on our way to a lake spot I knew to take some pictures when we decided to take a left instead of the right which I knew would take us …
Misty Montana Mountains
I shot this photo real quick as I was taking pictures of my Westfalia this summer in Glacier National Park. I figured since I was surrounded by all this natural beauty it would be a shame to not get a straight up landscape shot. It was actually raining when I took this picture and a …
Taking In The World
During my time in Honolulu I found myself zipping through this park (Ainahau Triangle) often. One day I was riding my skateboard through the park on my way to Starbucks for an ice coffee. The high palm trees and shadows caught my eye, so I stopped for this picture. Before my camera became a necessity …
That Time I didn’t Jump In The Lake
These photos are from a trip I took to Vernon BC in the summer. My wife Michelle, our children and her sister and her sisters boyfriend all decided to go jump in the lake to cool off on what was surly a hot day. The beach they were going to didn’t have fine sand (more …
Westfalia Days
Driving around in this Westfalia van of mine is one of my favourite things to do. Climbing on top of the van is also a good time and perfect for a picture together. 😉 Shout out to my buddy Jeremy for hitting the shutter button for me. Thanks for stopping by, Rob
Mountain Man
Yesterday my friend Jeremy and I took a little drive out to the mountains in my Westfalia van. We stopped off at a place called Barrier Lake and then wondered up a road we had never been on and found a little hiking trail. Following the short hike we were rewarded with an amazing view …
Grizzly Bear
My family and I were driving through Glacier National Park this summer and we saw this Grizzly bear just wandering along the side of the mountain! The longest lens I had with me was a manual focus Canon FD 100mm f/2.8. When we saw the bear my camera had on a 24-70mm so I scrambled …
Winter Rocky Mountains
Well it’s still very much winter around here (in Alberta)! But at least it make the mountains look nice. 🙂 Thanks for stopping by, Rob
Rocky Mountain Sun
I was out in Banff, Alberta this past weekend on a little family ski trip. The weather was pretty cold and it was snowing most of the time so I didn’t get a chance to take many pictures. I shot this photo on the day we left right before we headed home. The pictures from …
