Recently I read another outdoor photographer mention that their most important tool in photography was an alarm clock. Which immediately reminded me of this particular trip where I came to this same realization.
The following images are from a 2005 trip to Rabbit Island, near Vancouver Island in BC. All images were shot on Fuji Velvia film. Questions and comments are very welcome.
If you live innocently in suburbia and hardly ever venture beyond the “safety” of your bubble, well… I don’t know what to say. I only hope we can preserve this earth for future generations to enjoy. I’m not an educated environmentalist with tons of facts on how many acres of Amazon rain forest are being mowed down right now, or what you could possibly do in your daily life to help save the planet. I’m just a nature photographer who appreciates the feeling of peaceful isolation when waking up at 5:00 AM to go stand out in the cold, clear air in the middle of nowhere, waiting for the sun to rise…
Take care,
