I went a long time without seeing any owls, then now I’ve seen a bunch in the last few weeks. Behind the Costco in Richmond under the oak st bridge, and in ladner around the parks with trees.

The ladner one scared the shit out of me, swooped my toddler and I a few times at dusk. Obviously couldn’t hear a thing until I looked up and saw this 2+ foot wingspan 15” from my face haha

Any large park in the GVRD will have at least one mated pair of Barred or Great Horned owl.

It was in the Hyde Creek area in Coquitlam for a few months last year.

Bears don't just shit in the woods. Here, you can see the circle of life, as momma bear is returning the digested salmon to the creek where she first caught it!

This whole section died off, I'd be curious how many of the regular posters still shoot, what they shoot, and what level everyone is at now

I still shoot whenever I've got the chance. But with kids growing up and family duties become less flexible, the day of going out for a photowalk is long gone.

Here are a few I took recently in Lyon

I love fuji. I just shoot photos with my X100v and recently got the Lumix S5ii for video. Would of stuck fully with Fuji for both if their autofocus was better for shooting kids.

Hey guys,

I'm looking for a local or online company that can take a phone photo and blow it up as a larger ~12x16 print.

Any recommendations? Thanks.

Your phone photo should be large enough to print 12x16. Megapixels wise

Go to your photo gallery, click the photo, then find details. As long as it's 14mp or larger, your good to go. Even 10mp will do.
It might show pixels instead, 2000x3000 or larger is good.

Many print shop, Costco, London drugs, etc, have online print stores.
Upload the photo from your phone or computer, select size, order, done

If the file is small, then disregard the above, no recommendations

Nice, was in Serengeti in Tanzania in 2019. Took very similar photos. Animals look almost identical. Did you manage to spot a Rhino? That was the only one of the big 5 I didn't see up close.

Yep we managed to see quite a few rhinos - we didn't see a leopard up close, just from far away.
