Wild Beginnings


This image was taken in the sea to sky district of British Columbia. A few of the key industries in the district include tourism, logging, ranching, farming and a deep-sea port. It also offers a wide variety of opportunities for recreational activities such as rock climbing Squamish Rock, skiing in the local resorts, or zip-wiring in the forests.

Light of the Marsh


This stunning image was taken in Rye Harbor Nature Reserve, on the Southeastern coast of England. The large area of land is a mosaic of habitats beside the sea, with shingle, sand, rivers, grazing marsh and reedbeds. This photo was taken from inside one of the five hidden bird watching huts on the reserve.

Rapid Change


This scenic picture was taken on the river in Shannon Falls Provincial Park, whose waterfall is shown in Cascading Serenity. The park holds significant spiritual value to the Squamish First Nation, the first people to live in the area.
