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 …

Unplanned Picture
I had zero plans on jumping in on a picture last night when I ran out the door to see if I could get a shot by the lake. When I got to my photo location it was already pretty dark (darker than I wanted), but I shot a bunch of photos anyhow. I could …
Shy Eagle
Yesterday I went for a little drive south of the city (Kelowna) to see if I could get any decent pictures. I was in my Westfalia van and shot a bunch of pictures of the van and some landscape stuff. I felt like I had got enough photos for the day and started heading home …
Oh Mexico
My family and I usually head down to Mexico once a year. However since we just made this big move to Kelowna from Calgary I highly doubt we’ll get the chance to get down there this year. I mentioned it in passing to my wife yesterday while we were driving and its’ been bouncing around …
Bright Lights
I love all the lights down here. I especially like the lights strung around the building and to be honest, I probably wouldn’t have shot this photo if those lights were not there. When I shot this photo it was pretty dark out as you can see form the sky, but the lights set a …
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 …
Kelowna Night
I’ve been really enjoying my time in Kelowna so far! The weather as been spot on and the city is turning out to be even better than expected. I stumbled on this view point the other night and have been back twice since. I really love a nice view like this and I’m sure I’ll …
Autumn Colors of Kelowna
The leaves are changing colors in Kelowna. I took a drive up Knox mountain yesterday to get a view of the city and see what kind pictures I could get. I met another nice photographer up there and got a couple good shots, so it was a good evening to be out exploring my new …
Kelowna Signs & Lights
I shot this one a couple nights ago and the wind was a little ruff. You can see the movement in the tree leaves on the left. I don’t usually like that much movement in the trees, but I don’t hate it in the picture. When I was setting up for this shot an intoxicated …
Puerto Vallarta Sunsets
I was hanging out down in Puerto Vallarta not long ago and when I saw then sun setting I ran out to shoot this photo. Sunsets in Puerto Vallarta are almost always awesome and the truth is I have been better ones than this, but I still like this picture because it reminds me that …
Westy by the Water
It’s pretty easy to get a good picture driving around Banff National Park in Alberta, Canada. I pulled off here for a few shots and took so many pictures. I tried a bunch of different angles and most them looked pretty good to me. This shot in particular I felt showed the backdrop quite nicely …
Little Westfalia
I bought this little die cast VW Vanagon Westfalia to take pictures of during the winter months when I can’t take pictures of my real van haha. This is a 1:18 scale model of what looks to be a 1981 or 82 air-cooled Volkswagen Westfalia van. The detail on this model is pretty bang on. …
