Hi everyone,

Here is a recent image taken on a trip to BC's Manning Provincial Park. What a great experience it was spending an evening with this adorable cub and it's mother as they feasted on wild strawberries. I quite like the out of focus tiger lilies in the foreground, what do you think?

Myself and Connor Stefanison have just announced a workshop in this beautiful and diverse park from July 20-23, 2015.

More information can be found here.

Best wishes,

Beautiful cinnamon with just a touch of color. Maybe this was his daddy:

That is hilarious! Apart from the sore paw. Seems it's making out alright though... or should I say upright.
This little one didn't have quite the balance his eastern cousin does. The sequences when I burst multiple frames show it swaying from side to side.

Not too keen on the oof flowers in front, especially as they are a bright colour and catch the eye. If they were in focus it would be better IMO. That said, the expression on the cub's face couldn't be sweeter!

Hello Jess

Very Cool expression on the Cub! Like Carole I feel the oof flowers distract from the capture.

But still an interesting image of junior.

This is adorable. It totally makes me think of a toddler that's been posed in a field of wildflowers! I'm on the fence about the tiger lillies, I like the pop of color that they bring but the location is a little distracting.
