We did not have the three photographic travels we planned for 2020 because of Covid, but we did manage some stay-at-home photography anyway. Three kilometres east of us there is an osprey box/nest with a convenient viewing area. I visited…
In July of 2019 we returned to Alaska. On this trip, we joined up with photographer John Solnina (website link) once again for a photo tour. We travelled from Anchorage to Seward and Homer, both coastal communities in the Kenai…
We found leaving Belleville, Ontario in late April with the tree buds barely visible and watching through the car’s windscreen the transition to summer leaves (and temperature) in Tennessee a very interesting experience. We met up with photographer John Solnina…
In June of 2018 we found ourselves at high altitude in Shenandoah National Park to photograph the Blue Mountains for several days. This was another photo workshop run by our friend and mentor Tom Dwyer, an upstate New York photographer;…
Our 11 day photo tour of Reykjavík and southern Iceland was very interesting and enjoyable in spite of Iceland’s unusually wet summer! We had a number of excellent photo opportunities of waterfalls, birds, glaciers, and icebergs. We particularly enjoyed our…
The Galapagos Islands, 620 miles off the coast of Ecuador, are home to a great variety of wildlife waiting to be photographed; perhaps that’s a stretch, but photography has proven to be an important tool to promote the preservation of…
Our last photography adventure for our very exciting 2017 was a return visit to Costa Rica. We visited, once again, the canopy walks in Monteverde and went to the same butterfly and hummingbird spots as before; however, there were very few…
I am titling this as Part I because I am sure we will return at least two more times. There are 22 named waterfalls in the gorge that forms a Y with the rivers and there are falls on all…
August 2017 was a memorable month. We started with a bear photo tour in the Lake Clark & Katmai parks. Each morning our group of ten flew out in three float planes to find bears. We flew through wilderness and…
In early July of 2017 we went in search of loons and their chicks with Michael Bertelsen of Algonquin Park Photography Tours. Michael monitors 15 pairs of loons on different lakes and takes participants to the most favorable locations to…
Our May trip to upstate New York was a lot of fun. We really enjoyed meeting photographer Tom Dwyer (www.tomdwyerphotography.com) and spending time with him in Letchworth State Park; we admire Tom’s work very much, and we really appreciated his…
This adventure had two parts: first was to take part in a photo tour looking for moose in particular, and fall colours in general, in and around Baxter State Park in Maine; second was to spend time in the Stowe, Vermont…
In late May, Cathy and I enjoyed spending a few days in Watkins Glen, New York. On the day we arrived, we checked out Seneca Mills Falls, kind of like an appetizer for the days to follow. We spent two…
