Once the dense fog cleared, it was a sudden explosion of light.
It was majestic!
And a surprise as I made camp in the dark the previous night.

Sea Lions!

Wintering in Powell River.
Me and the Sea Lions 😉.
According to a local, the Sea Lions start congregating along the shores of Powell River at every winter solstice.
Word of caution: they get very curious when a dog swims near them...

The landing!

It has been a very long social media break time... for which I do not apologize 🙂.
But I am back, starting new again, after much time pondering where do I want my photography to take me. Stay tuned for some amazing imageries!

Each tree has its own story.
For this western red cedar, it ended in loneliness, for decades past and coming.
For the Coast Salish peoples, it is the Tree of Life.
Pre-colonization, a cedar tree could have theoritically sustained 40 generations of people, perhaps more, in its lifetime! The Coast Salish people knew how to care for the cedars, and in return the cedars provided food, habitat, medicine, shelter, and many other benefits. That is 40+ generations! Imagine the bond a people can develop with a tree that have been with them for hundreds of years.
But colonization came, and with it greed, and the forced displacement of the people who cared for the cedars.
This tree witnessed it all, including the cutting down of the entire forest around it. Then one day it was the last one, and who knows, perhaps this cedar died of sadness, all alone, wandering looking for its kin and its people.

This bug shield was kind enough to stay still long enough for several captures at various depth of field. 12 images focus stacked!
For the ones who are wondering what depth of field is: it is the portion of the subject that is in focus. In macro photography, at 1:1, the depth of field scale is very shallow: millimeters, often less than that, hence the need to capture several shots.
On a side note, few more extra weeks and I'll get back to my usual postings...dealing with a corrupted hard drive containing all of my pics isn't fun...luckily, has the know how to retrieve datas!

A horse fly, not sure which type... but she was certainly cheeky. She landed on my knee, tried really hard to poke thru to my skin, and when she realized it could not be done, she went for my face... like mosquitoes, only the female bites. Male horse fly can often be found near potential victims, leading the females to it and hoping to get noticed. Amazing display of team work and gallantry!

It is all about poo!
As I was adjusting the focus ring between each shot, starting from the far end to the closest point from the lens, I got lucky 😇.
What I thought was the head was in fact the ass...here you can see a ball of poo being evacuated, and collected into a soup of decomposition on a lupin leaf... nature is amazing!

Pick any wild field, lay down chin down, and wait in silence. Soon you will start noticing tiny things moving, usually some sort of ant climbing mount everest. As you focus your senses, more and more seems to come alive, until you realize that the few square feet you have been staring at is in fact a whole universe teeming with life: a macro photographer dream! 📷💥
Here I am following this colorful spider, on what felt like a long treck, waiting for the moment it stops long enough for me to take multiple shots. And it did, twice! One of the image is a focus stack of 41 images! All hand held too 🙂.

I was supposed to post the crazy storm timelapse from mount Bucchanan, but a recent storage failure locked me out of my library of the last 3 years of clicking away...data are being retrieved, slowly but surely, thanks to .🤞🤞🤞
In the meantime, might as well start sharing my library of hundreds of crystal sharp macro images, (saved on my phone). Most of them are handheld focus shifted: moving my camera back and forth no more than a millimeter each time. Each shot is then aligned and blended in . More on my macro photography techniques on my next posts!
*** my macro capture style is about observing in a natural state only. No plants or bugs are ever harmed in order to get my crystal clear macro shots ***

About 3/4 up mount Bucchanan, with view of the Kokanee range. I was hoping to catch the upcoming thunderstorm. Camera set for timelapse; 30 minutes of shooting; 20 minutes standing outside in awe of the intensity of the storm; the last 10 min sitting in my car, waiting for the thunderstorm to pass, and being pummeled with buckets of hail and sheets of rain. I didn't capture a single lightning 😔 Timelapse will be posted in the near future.
_______________________________
Interesting fact:
Kokanee is derived from the Sinixt term "kekeńi". It means kokanee salmon, or place of red fish; also landlocked salmon.
