Welcome! I'm a freelance outdoor photographer and travel writer living in the wilds of the Yukon, Canada. For the past 20 years I have travelled throughout the remote corners of the Canadian Arctic, Latin America and Madagascar. I enjoy writing about and photographing landscapes, wildlife and outdoor pursuits. It is my intent to use this blog to share my stories and images from my adventures.

Another gorgeous winter sunset
Despite the cold, the Yukon can be an incredible place to photograph in winter. Gorgeous sunsets framed by the silhouettes of black spruce trees or the rugged mountains ..... ahh, the typical Yukon landscape. Now, if I can only get a raven to soar by....

Enjoying another Yukon Golden Sunset
Greetings once again from the Yukon!
Sunday night was a gorgeous night to watch the sun set. Moments before the sun was about to retire for the evening the sky was set ablaze with various shades of orange and yellow. Once again I quickly searched for my camera, 300mm lens, tripod and cable release and made a mad dash across the street in hopes of capturing the silhouettes of the spruce and alder trees set against the dramatic backdrop. I managed approximately 30 images - two of my favourites are posted above.
I was hoping for a repeat performance tonight - no luck. Lets hope for tomorrow evening. Speaking of which, aurora forecasters are predicting a good chance of spotting the northern lights tomorrow night.
The days are certainly getting longer - the sun rose at 7:13 and set at 21:02
Good night from the Yukon.
