Dream World
Depicted here is a wind and wave ravaged wooden jetty located along the western shores of beautiful Lake Winnipeg. These jetties are commonly found along this portion of the massive inland sea. The sole purpose of these jetties is to allow swimmers safe passage beyond rocks and boulders hidden from view beneath the lakes surface.

entry description
In the world of fine-art nature photography, I find few subjects more challenging and more fore filling than waterscapes. Capturing the raw beauty of waves coming ashore as they entwine with a selected subject can be ever so rewarding.Depicted here is a wind and wave ravaged wooden jetty located along the western shores of beautiful Lake Winnipeg.

about the photographer
I'm a Self-taught naturalist, conservationist and nature photographer who has spent decades exploring and capturing the raw beauty nature has provided us, through the lens of my camera. I have a tremendous appreciation for every and all aspects of the natural world. However, I have a special place in my heart for the "avian world", for it is the avian world where much of my photographic energy is focused these days. I could never so much as imagine what the world would be like with the absence of birds. If I had to choose one bird as my list of all-time favorites, I would choose the magnificent Great Gray owl. For I consider this owl to be the greatest representation of perfection. A stunningly beautiful and graceful creature, perfectly in tune with the natural world of which it dwells.back to gallery
