Northern Vancouver Island

Posted on 08/21/2026 by Jens

When people visit Vancouver Island they usually go to Victoria, Tofino, and Ucluelet. A beautiful area that receives less visitors is Northern Vancouver Island. I recently returned from a road trip to historical Telegraph Cove, Port McNeill, Port Alice, Alert Bay, and Coal Harbour. In the Johnstone Strait I saw Orcas, Humpback whales, Dall’s porpoise, Pacific White-sided dolphins, and Sea otters. If you can spare about 9 minutes of your time please watch my video. All filming, editing, and drone work was done by me.

Quarry Rock Hike

A beautiful day to spend some time in the forest. I went early to avoid the crowds and parking hassles. All filming, editing, and drone work has been done by me. There is music and you can click on the lower right hand corner to see the video full screen.

Freshet

Posted on 05/18/2026 by Jens

The mountain streams and rivers are experiencing a surge of melting snow. This Spring runoff leads to high water flows. I’m still learning to take images with my drone, but I like this photo and how the viewer’s gaze meanders through the scene. Click on the photo to see a larger version.

West Coast – Panorama

Posted on 07/10/2020 by Jens

This was my first attempt at creating panoramic images of the beautiful west coast. I was happy with the results and teaching myself a new photography technique. These images give the viewer a truly unique perspective. Click on an image to see a larger version and then use the left and right keys on your keyboard.

Beautiful B.C.

Posted on 01/03/2019 by Jens

The province of British Columbia contains so much natural beauty. I used my drone to create this video. In the lower right hand corner is a button that allows you to view the video full screen. There is another icon in the lower right hand corner that looks like a ‘gear’. Here you can select the resolution and 720p seems to work best. There is also music which makes the video more enjoyable to watch. Comments are always welcome.

A Beautiful Province

Posted on 12/30/2017 by Jens

I’m always trying to learn new things. When I’ve been out taking images with my camera I’ve also brought along my drone. This is my first attempt at creating a video and adding music. In the lower right hand corner you can click on the button ‘Enter full screen’. You can also select the video quality at 1080p resolution so it’s nice and clear. No wildlife was harassed in the making of this video.

Harrison Lake

Posted on 01/15/2017 by Jens

Early this morning, for the first time, I tried taking some images with my new drone at Harrison Lake. The camera is only 12 MP and doesn’t have the dynamic range of my Nikon cameras. However, it allows me to take photos from a different perspective. I need to get better at flying the drone and spend more time experimenting with the camera settings to improve the quality of my images. Click on the photo to see a larger version.
