Chasing the Sun
Summer is over and fall is here! Up north in Canada and in the mountains of the USA this means snow. The terminal dust has already fallen on the mountain tops, blooms have turned to seed and the days are noticeably shorter. Tho this photo was shot in spring it gives you a taste of the changing seasons. We hiked into Jacques Lake in Jasper National Park, Canada, without having any idea what we would find and were dazzled by the clear waters and mountain reflections. It was very early in the hiking season so most hikes were still covered in snow except for this one, that was the simple means by which we chose it - because it was passable. This was shot as the sun was sinking behind the moutain tops as the chilly evening was coming on. I was completely enthralled with this scene and shot so many images as the sun sank further and further, but this is my favourite one.

Chasing the Sun
Back in the spring of 2009, I took a four month long road trip with a partner from California to Alaska. As often as we could we parked the truck and put on our packs to venture out into the wilderness. On this occasion we set off toward Bedwell Lake having no clue the trail would be covered in snow. Unprepared and a bit daunted by the steep, snowy and very often slippery ascent, we refused to be deterred and trudged up anyway. To our delight, we were stunned by this awe-inspiring view and despite our exhaustion we delighted in setting up a cozy camp in this wonderful spot full of serenity and solitude.

Chasing the Sun
Some buildings have never been rebuilt from their destruction in WWII. This church in Bristol, England, is one such building left as a memorial and testament to the destruction. But Bristol isn't a city like so many others in Europe stuck in the past, the community has chosen to build a better future and revitalize the gardens to grow herbs and produce, creating beauty and spiritual growth among the rubble.
