I don’t like this image. You probably don't like this image. So why did I still shoot the photo?

Because it made me money.

This was the incredible skyline that marked the final leg of an epic three day, 3000km #RoadTrip through #Alberta and #BritishColumbia... what a way to end! 🚐🌄

I’d been shooting this Pacific Gull and thought I'd scared it as it spread its wings and took flight, but moments later I was waist deep in a huge wave 😬 Luckily I kept my footing, otherwise me and my gear would have been swept down the rock face and out into the swell! 📸😂

It’s moments like this that remind me it’s important to spend a little time away from the camera and see things as they are... not only through a lens. 🦋🌲☀️

Like most of #Canada, #Vancouver is a beautiful place that coexists remarkably with #Nature, and I love that in this image we’re not only treated to an incredible #Sunset but that you can see the city on the left merging with the forest of Stanley Park on the right. 🏙🌲📸

Like something from a movie! 🎥 🍿 On the way back to #Vancouver from #OkanaganLake the setting Sun cast insane light on the clouds and made it look like something from a #SciFi!! 🏔

You might not be as excited as me but for someone that loves wildlife (and photographing it) as much as I do, there’s nothing like the thrill of finding an animal you’ve never seen before in person! This Marmot was super chilled and wandered past our tent out in in BC! 🐾

Climbing a 2,285m mountain in the dead of the night, just to shoot the Sun rising over the world below?

Absolutely! All in a day (or nights 😉) work for a #TravelPhotographer 📷

What’s the best view you’ve woken up to? 📷

This has to be one of mine - an incredible night camping beneath #JoffreGlacier and looking out across #UpperJoffreLake to the mountains beyond!

#HappyNewYear! Wishing everyone a great start to the New Year! If you’ve not been before be sure to add #Penticton, BC to your #TravelList for 2020 - it’s an incredible place for photographers. It's where I shot this #Sunset (feat. me 😂) over #OkanaganLake. #TravelPhotographer

[Aaron Northcott @AaronNorthcott]

@MikkoLagerstedt Happy New Year to you too! Lovely image, as always =)

A #TimeLapse of upper #JoffreLakes and the mountains surrounding it. This is one of the most beautiful natural places I’ve ever had the privilege of visiting (and camping at! 🏕) #BritishColumbia #HikingAdventures #HikingLife #HikeLife #WanderLust #JoffreLakesProvincialPark

A trip into the #BackCountry near Penticton revealed some breathtaking #Landscapes. #BritishColumbia has some of the most beautiful pine forests in the world! I can't wait to explore more and discover the #Wildlife and hidden secrets that the #Wilderness of the North keeps! 📷

It's important to spend time without a camera. I find myself thinking 'Would I prefer to be one of the surfers instead of the guy wit the camera?' 🌊 If I hadn't already spent the morning #Surfing, I'd definitely prefer to be in the water! 😂 Good work/life balance is important.

This Buff-Breasted Paradise Kingfisher was hard to miss whilst hiking through Mossman Gorge in Queensland. The vibrant blue and orange plumage is undoubtedly how it earned the 'Paradise' name! Definitely visit @Queensland, Australia for some incredible #WildlifeEncounters!

The Quays in #Manchester, UK are beautiful by night - illuminating the #NightSky and dark waters of the river Irwell. They’re worth exploring if you’re travelling in the North of England!

This is Peanut. 🐹 🥜

She’s a much loved member of the family that we sadly had to leave behind when we relocated to Vancouver from the UK. Luckily we had some awesome friends that gave her a loving home and send us regular updates!

Wishing everyone #HappyHolidays and a #MerryChristmas to those that celebrate it! A perfect time to reflect on the past year, enjoy friends and family... and probably look through a few old photos too! What will you be doing for Christmas?

@britshipyards in #Steveston, #BritishColumbia are a great place to visit if you're looking to escape the city for a few hours - and it's where I captured this serene image besides the water earlier this year! Revisiting this image makes me wish for warmer days of Summer again...

[Aaron Northcott @AaronNorthcott]

This part of the world is home to a large number of hummingbird species - and I was delighted to photograph my first ever one in Steveston, British Columbia! 

This is a male Anna's #Hummingbird, flashing iridescent pinks & mauves as it paused for a moment on a rosebush.
