Caught some sunrise colours this morning out at Pitt Meadows.
Came across a collection of starfish at Cates Park this morning due to low tide. I've never seen them up close like this before, very alien looking.
Thanks very much!
Really liked the shapes that the negative space of the fog took here. Calm and simple.
Nice standalone mushroom seen this morning in Woodhaven Swamp (with a tiny guest).
The dregs of summer are upon us for sure. Most plants are either withering away, or are big leafy greens (which don't typically macrophoto very well). Caught this lil purple guy along the trail in Capilano Canyon.
Wildfire smoke still pretty strong here in Vancouver. This is a viewpoint from Burnaby Mountain, looking north towards Deep Cove and Indian Arm.
Thanks very much! This was shot on a Nikon Z6, using the F-mount 105mm macro lens. It's a focus stack of 25 exposures, each shot at 0.4s f/5.6.
Took a couple of my old McFarlane dragon figures out on a hike this morning.

Thanks very much! It’s pretty hot right now, we’ve got a few days of 30C weather in front of us right now. Been a very dry summer (by Vancouver standards, at any rate).
Took a walk around Cliff Falls Park in Maple Ridge this morning. Might be worth a re-visit in the fall, once the water flow is stronger.
Thank you! Process involves shooting a range of images in the field (generally more than I need), then merging them in either Photoshop or a tool like Helicon Focus. I then select the edge shots (where I'd like the focus to begin and end), and then selectively edit and/or remove shots from the stack; perhaps the wind moved the subject a bit, or a bug entered shot. Following that is my usual RAW processing regime, which varies from shot to shot.
Not fake, but focus stacked. This is 29 shots blended, each at 1/13s, f/5.6.
Thanks! Glad you liked it (and I didn’t even see your pre-edit, but for clarity, this was taken at Barnet Marine Park in Burnaby, BC).
Sure looks like it to me too! Thanks for the ID help, I’m awful at identifying the plants I shoot.
I am! This is approximately 30 shots stacked, shot at 1/13s exposure @ f/5.6.
Thanks! And thanks for the additional info - very interesting!
Very cool - thanks for filling in the info gap!
Thanks! So glad your eye caught that web as well. :-)
Thanks! For sure, dramatic sunrise clouds are one of my favourite fall features.
