What’s the one subject you’ve always wanted to photograph but never have?

Please choose only one – even if you have multiple ideas. Often, this one choice shows what truly inspires you.


For me, it’s the Northern Lights

Can’t wait to see what comes up for all of you!

As primarily a bird photographer, would love to find and shoot great grey owls. They don't live near me so a trip to where they are commonly seen is on my bucket list.

It's funny you mention great grey owls. A story comes to mind which I had forgotten.

I live in the Rocky Mountains in BC, Canada. We live on a few acres about 10 minutes outside a small town. We have a wood boiler in an outbuilding which heats the buildings on our property. One night around 10pm I went to load up the boiler. Something large flew overhead (spooked me) and landed in a tree.

I grabbed a flashlight to see what it was, and this owl was staring back at me. It's a lot bigger than it looks here. Probably about 36" tall if I had to guess. We sat there for 1–2 minutes looking at each other, then I saw it open its wings, drop out of the tree, and glide off into the darkness. I have never seen a great grey owl before, or since. Sometimes you get these lovely moments.

This was the quick photo I could snap with my phone.

Any state forest, national forest, refuge, or grassland that is not crowded or has been 'discovered'. As far as what to photograph-I'm good with almost anything in the right environment and conditions.

My dreams are nearly all gone now. But I did quite a lot more than most. All 7 continents, Africa safaris 20-something times, nearly 20 trips to Central and South America. Many dozens of photo trips in North America and various islands from far south to far north oceans. I never saw aurorae since I'm always in the local summertime of the hemisphere. I didn't bother much with a camera in Europe or the few places I've been in East Asia.

Sounds like a pretty good life so far!

A few things come to mind:
- I have a portrait series I would like to pursue.
- I am in Canada, I would like to a collection of our National Parks.
- I also have an idea for a collection of city scapes.
