Rocky Start


Early sunrise heading through the Canadian Rockies near to Kootenay. It was around minus 2 or 3 degrees that morning and having left our camp in a scramble to catch the breaking dawn we happened upon this quiet river and spikey treeline. Here's where I learned that if I held my breath for long enough while taking a shot, I could avoid camera blur. Genius. Several shots later, after almost turning blue, the inability to stop my heart from beating (yep it caused blur too...) and my body's desire to involuntarily wriggle at random points (probably due to the cold) here is also where I learned that I should have taken a tripod with me...
