I’m an amateur photographer who started my journey in 2019 taking photographs for my son’s school. Since then I’ve found the love of seeing the world’s beauty around me and capturing it how I see it. I shoot primarily using my iPhone14 but have been learning how to properly use my Canon EOS 90D more recently.

Winning photos

This is my dad’s restored 1933 Chev Pickup. We had it out for a drive and while going across a bridge I asked him to stop so I could capture it with the fall landscape behind. I love how the fall colors made the green of the truck really pop!

62nd Collection

The Three Graces-Aglaia, Euphrosyne, and Thalia - are the daughters of Zeus and are the ancients who embody beauty, joy, and harmony. The statue was on display at the Vatican Museums and I loved the reflection caught in the doorway glass.

62nd Collection

My family was on a rafting trip at the end of summer and this guy decided to catch a ride with us down the River. He didn’t seem bothered that I was right in his face with my camera capturing this photo.

61st Collection

Sunflowers are my happy flower…I can’t help but smile when I see one. And to capture it with the sunrise as well just made me giddy.

61st Collection

Only 2 % of the worlds population has naturally occurring green eyes and my son is one of those fortunate few. A recent photo of the day prompt “Eyes” challenged me to find a creative way to show off his emerald peepers and using the leaves to frame it brought out the beautiful green color.

60th Collection

The local science museum recently hosted a travelling exhibit called “Luminarium”. Created by Alan Parkinson, Founder of Architects of Air, Luminarium is an 11,000 square-foot inflatable structure with 21 rooms, filled with vivid colours that reflect the sun’s natural light off curved walls all within a labyrinth of tunnels. The exhibit provided so many incredible photo opportunities it was hard to choose just 1 to submit.

60th Collection

15 minutes outside of Calgary, Alberta is western Canada’s largest outdoor amusement park. My son and I had just spent a very fun day riding all the rides and eating way to much cotton candy when I captured our favourite ride bathed in evening sun and reflected on the pond. A perfect capture to end a perfect day!

59th Collection

Gerbera Daisies are one of my favourite flowers growing in my garden this year so I’ve taken many photos to capture their beauty. While the full color version was beautiful, I decided to try a softer, black and white version for this challenge.

59th Collection

A perfect summer day in the beautiful mountain town of Canmore, Alberta provided so many wonderful photo opportunities. As a proud Albertan and Canadian this landscape with the Canadian chairs was too perfect to pass up.

59th Collection

One of the best spots to watch the skill and agility of surfers on the Island of Maui is Ho’okipa Beach. Surfers flock to this beach for the incredible swells…and photographers flock here to capture them.

58th Collection

The bravest thing you can be is yourself. We sew the seeds of love in our words and actions. Pride month may be over but the feeling and love lasts all year long.

58th Collection

In the town of Zaans Schans, about 30 minutes from Amsterdam there is an authentic wooden shoe factory that has been preserving the art of wooden shoe making for 40 years. This beautiful display of their work is shown on the outside of their workshop for all to admire.

57th Collection

A calm, peaceful morning on Upper Kananskis Lake in Alberta, Canada. I was on a hike in camping trip with my son and woke up early to capture the lake in complete stillness.
There was no sound, no movement at all so just stopped and took it all in!
