The Snow Petrel is one of only three birds that has been seen at the Geographic South Pole. This image was taken while Zodiac cruising along the Antarctic Peninsula. Not exactly the south pole, but still Antarctica! This was a bucket shot for me. Taken as the petrel flew across large iceberg while it was snowing.

Can't wait to be back.
This is a cel phone image taken while on the peninsula last summer. I didn't have time to go back to the cottage to get my "real" camera 😳

One of my favourite views ♥️♥️♥️⁠
Looking out over Georgian Bay from the cliffs of the northern escarpment. This image was taken just before the lake froze but don't let that fool you, it was about -18 degrees C that morning but after a brisk walk in the dark out to the cliffs, I was quite comfortable and dressed for the early morning light.⁠
⁠
I'm looking forward to returning this year. Do you have a favourite place to return to time and time again?⁠

I've learned in life that everything is SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE. This one lesson helps me roll with the punches and embrace life as it comes. How are you doing with life changes?⁠

If life had unfolded the way I planned it, I would be in Africa now leading a group on a safari adventure. I'm grateful to have already travelled there and to have been hosted by my amazing friends at @pangolinphotosafaris. They helped me get images I only had in my dreams before making the trip including this image of a female leopard. she had two adolescent cubs with her and was keeping a close eye on them from the tree she was in.⁠

The Nikon D850 has such great dynamic range that I was able to shoot in high contrast speckled light and not blow out the highlights and maintain all the details⁠
