This beautiful old sign is the sign that greets you to my neighbourhood in Kelowna. I love this sign and I have a bad feeling the city will replace it with something newer and most likely worse. I dont have a good reason for thinking this, but it just seems like when something is old …

West Kelowna
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 …
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 …
Late Night Coffee
Gotta show a little love to the Blenz Coffee shop in my neighbourhood, because if you need a coffee spot a little later into the night this one the place to be. That ladder in the front of the store bothered me at first and I was thinking I wouldn’t post the picture. After I …
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 …
Downtown Bear
There is this beautiful bear art piece downtown in Kelowna. When I set up to shoot this photo the clouds had just covered the moon. I knew the moon was going to be a big part of this shot so I sat and waited for about 15 minutes for the clouds to pass by enough …
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 …
Pandosy Night
I recently moved to Kelowna, BC! I am originally from Vancouver (well sort of, I’m kind of from a lot places but that’s another story. Vancouver is where I spent most of my life). So moving back to BC from Alberta was a long time coming and my family and I couldn’t be happier. With …
