Having moved to southern Alberta almost four years ago, settling into my new home and new province, I enjoy exploring with my family and capturing alberta's beauty.

I have lived in northern Quebec-Sept-Iles, a rugged but beautiful location with extreme temperatures; in St. John's, Newfoundland, another naturally beautiful geography, with warm people and rich culture; big city Canada in Toronto, full of activity and excitement; Thompson, and Brochet, in northern Manitoba where winter was long, and we were isolated most of the year; in Brownwood, Texas, where we were aliens, but basked in the heat and novelty, and finally in Lethbridge, Alberta. After varied experiences, it is second nature to adapt to new people, new homes, customs, climates and routines.

Alberta is a great place to spend time taking photographs. Mostly, there are fantastic opportunites to do daytripping to many of the parks, mountains, and prairie areas. There is so much beauty here.

Above and below are photos I've taken in Lethbridge, of a downtown park, known as Galt Gardens. Just the perfect amount of snowfall, and the sun coming through the branches makes for a magical image. It reminds me of Narnia.
