In this video, we go behind the scenes on a recent travel photography trip to Vancouver Island on Canada's West Coast. I spent a bit over a week exploring the north half of the island for the first time, finishing up with a few days back in Ucluelet and Tofino. Landscapes, travel photography, and some wildlife as well.

Stunning! Love the PNW when it's gloomy and rainy like this

I have only been to the PNW twice but I, too, feel like it is someplace special. Thanks for taking the time and effort to make your videos, I really enjoy them and seeing your excellent photographs.

Brian, a nice set of images here telling the story of your trip. There are a few true 'bangers' among the images, which is always nice, but when telling a story like this I find the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. And this is a wonderful example of that with the mix of vistas, wildlife, intimate shots, and, of course, the waterfalls. Well done. Thanks for posting.

Thanks Frank! Definitely my favorite way to approach travel photography, with a series of images like that.

Awesome stuff! Just finished reading Richard Powers’ novel Overstory, which traces the lives of several people and their connections to trees. He’d have a LOT to say about that huge one you encountered. 😊 Thanks for another great experience.

Oh nice! Make sure to check back closer to then too, as they're still works in progress (though that'll always be the case as I visit more places)

Stunning locations in this video!!! Curious how you protect your camera gear when it's misty for your whole hike?

Good question! Honestly, I just put a lot of (probably too much) trust in Sony's weather sealing. I've taken it out in absolute downpours for well over an hour and the only thing that's ever really happened is I get an error message saying "this accessory is not supported" when the hot shoe gets wet. No issues besides that though, even with it getting really wet. If I'm going to be hiking in the rain for a while though, and I remember to bring one, I'll use a disposable shower cap from a hotel to cover the camera when it's on my Peak Design capture clip. But yeah, it just gets wet a lot 😂

@@BrianLackey That's an impressive amount of trust! I shoot Canon and I would never...I mean, I'm sure Canon has probably weather sealed their cameras....but...they're so expensive (both Canon and Sony). I'll have to try and shower cap the next time I'm gonna be in a rainy location :)
