Frosted Footprint by TedGore



If you are interested in joining TJ Thorne and I on a workshop in the Columbia River Gorge, we have opened up a second workshop on the dates May 13th-17th due to demand, and have two spots left. Please find more information HERE Really interesting conditions at Bow Lake in the Canadian Rockies on this particularly frigid morning where the temperatures dipped down to around -25c. The coldest termperatures I have yet to experience. So cold in fact, that my tripod refused to work... the telescoping legs stopped telescoping, frozen in place from tiny amounts of condensation inside the bushings. It was a Gitzo. Don't buy a Gitzo. I was with Justin Grimm(who was appropriately nick named 'Ginsu' on this trip... have you seen how sharp his images are? Have you seen him work a focus stack? It's a sight to behold), and Erin Babnik. Justin also had a Gitzo that was frozen solid. Erin has an RRS, which worked like a champ. I had to shoot this shot entirely hand held, laying stomach down on the ground, up on my elbows, trying to pull off a clean focus stack. It wasn't super clean, but good enough. I now have an RRS. :D Anyway, yes, it was cold, very cold, causing all of these frosty ice crystal flowers(aka hoar frost) top pop up all along the shore of Bow Lake. It was just what we were looking for, and fortuitous being that for a couple weeks prior, there had been no weather, and unseasonably warm. The conditions made us all pretty happy, not to mention the misty awesome goodness that was floating through, giving Crowfoot mountain something to dive in and out of obscurity. All in all a fantastic morning, and definitely the standout moment of our brief visit.nice wallpaper picture free download via 500px http://ift.tt/1HuxRVK

Sad story by EllenCuylaerts



Nature is amazing, beautiful, cruel but without interference...in balance. Harp seal pups have 12 days on the ice, being fed by the moms, after that they're on their own, and the circle of life enters a new stage for the adult females: mating season again. The pups stay on the ice for 5-6 more weeks, molt, are helpless and loose up to 50% of their bodyweight. Without human interference 30% of the pups will die, in years with bad ice those numbers go up way too high up to 70-90%... And still Canadian government issues a quota for the commercial seal hunt: 468.000 seals can be hunted in 2015, luckily because the demand for commercial products is down, the quota will not be met, but sadly 95% of the hunted seals are pups between 12-14 days and 3 months helpless, without energy, on the ice... Sad story!nice wallpaper picture free download via 500px http://ift.tt/1AGet3Q

Black Tusk by ChristianThamm



The sun setting over Black Tusk in the Garibaldi Provincial Park, British Columbia. I recently started experimenting with Photoshop. I guess I'm still overdoing it pretty often and there is still so much to learn and to improve but compared to my previous attempt on this shot with Lightroom only (still online for comparison), I am happier with this one.nice wallpaper picture free download via 500px http://ift.tt/1EIxs4o

Alpine Glow by AdamGibbs



Winter photography on the local mountains has been a real bust this year. The good news is that the lack of snow meant a lot more trail running. Spring is well on its way on the west coast. This image was taken on the wintery slopes of Mt. Seymour, a wintery favourite location of mine for many years now. I'm thrilled to announce that I have teamed up with Peter Cairns at Northshots.com. Peter and I will be instructing a Canadian Rockies workshop in the fall of 2016. For more information be sure to email me or Peter for this once in a lifetime adventure.nice wallpaper picture free download via 500px http://ift.tt/1wvP6oU

Sunrise over frozen lake by Victor_Liu_Photography



Another sunrise over the frozen lake, where I have visited over 20 times this year, it feels like I chat with an old friend, how are you doing? are you feeling well? did you get hit by a snow storm last night? he has so many stories to share with me, and then I share with my other friends.nice wallpaper picture free download via 500px http://ift.tt/1wbFXBY

Snowy Owl - Close Call by rickdobson



This Snowy Owl flew by me so close that I could not fit her in the frame. I was fortunate to be able to keep her in focus.nice wallpaper picture free download via 500px http://ift.tt/1BaZeUm

SUNRISE EXTREME by chrisbabidaacaso



Methane bubbles form in bodies of water when dead organic matter (leaves and animals) falls into the water and sinks to the bottom, to the delight of bacteria waiting below. The bacteria munches on the matter and poops out methane, which turns to white floating blobs when it comes into contact with frozen water. Methane is formed in thousands of lakes around the arctic, but decreasing permafrost means more and more of this methane is being released into the atmosphere, a worrying trend for climate scientists who note that methane is a more potent greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide ABRAHAM LAKE ALBERTA CANADAnice wallpaper picture free download via 500px http://ift.tt/1C9U50B
