Canadian Geographic Cover

I’m not a fan of Canadian Geographic doing votes for their covers, but since I keep losing the cover shot because I don’t promote the vote on social media (I’ve lost three in a row and the last one I won was because I had ALL of the choices, so the vote didn’t matter!), I thought I’d at least put this one out there and see if you guys agree: this…

Canadian Creatives: Our Favourite Images

Almost a year ago I teamed up two of my buddies, fellow Canadian photographers Dave Brosha and Paul Zizka, to launch Canadian Creatives, an image collective we hoped would celebrate creativity in Canadian photography and showcase the best images from across the country regardless of which photo genre they came from. We started the initiative on…

The Owl Rescue

Sunday, November 29th, 2016 – 2:16 p.m.

As many of you that follow me on Instagram or Facebook already know, I had quite the day on Saturday. It began as most winter days begin, with me driving down a quiet road in the mountains looking for wildlife to photograph.

As it happened, I had a small film crew (more about that in a few paragraphs) with…

Gear Review: Sigma 24-35 f2 Art Lens

First, full disclosure: I’m sponsored by Sigma Canada. They give me free lenses (like my Sigma 120-300mm f2.8) and let me test out new lenses when they come out on the market.

Second, a disclaimer for the disclosure: I only review lenses I like. So if you see a review for a lens (or anything) on here, it means I like it…usually a lot.

So that…

What’s the Dealio with Nootropics?

I’ve been hearing a lot about brain enhancing supplements lately, otherwise known as nootropics. Sounds a bit hokey to me but I sure could use some help with brain fog. How do you actually choose which ones work the best? I was reading about one of the one’s on Amazon from Windmill Health but it didn’t look like the ingredients were all that potent when compared to other products.

Plus according to this article on the side effects of windmill health focus formula it also has a bunch of non essential ingredients so my search continues… I’ll keep you updated on what I find.
