CHEK News Featured My Photo of a Black Oystercatcher

PhotographyBy brendajohimaFebruary 13, 2020Leave a comment

I received an email from Tess van Straaten of our local Vancouver Island based CHEK News. She was contacting me to let me know they would be featuring my photo of a black oystercatcher on the 5PM News for their weather photo. It’s always nice to find out ahead of time, to help spread the…

CBC Vancouver Features My Black Oystercatcher Photo on Instagram

Birding, PhotographyBy brendajohimaFebruary 1, 20206 Comments

I am currently living on Vancouver Island and if you know the Island well, you know that in winter you need to learn to get used to the color gray––as in gray skies and gray seas––and…rain rain rain or, be miserable. It is all too easy to complain about our Island rain and oftentimes “horrid”…

2020—Write It Anyway

Looking Within, PhotographyBy brendajohimaJanuary 7, 20202 Comments

Did you make any New Years resolutions? I haven’t, in many years. However, I do love to start my New Years Day off in nature if at all possible. So this January 1st 2020 I went to enjoy one of my favourite nature trail walks at Rathtrevor Provincial Park, in Parksville on Vancouver Island. It…

TRY Anything and Everything

PhotographyBy brendajohimaJuly 17, 2019Leave a comment

I think that with what was a trend towards trying to have the perfectly curated Instagram account …I am glad that I am older and wiser to know better. Or shall I say, I choose my inherent creativity over curation. The internet is a playground for me, a place for me to experiment and to…

The Beautiful Turkey Vulture is Crucial to our Ecosystem

Nature, PhotographyBy brendajohimaJuly 16, 201915 Comments

Yeah, that’s right, I said beautiful. I was one too, who used to think that the turkey vulture was ugly. Well that was until I started to go to bird and wildlife rescue, recovery and rehabilitation centres more regularly, which began a couple years ago. There are a few on Vancouver Island and I love…

Be Grateful for the Moment You Are In Because Moments Never Happen Again

Nature, PhotographyBy brendajohimaJuly 14, 20195 Comments

Oooops. I missed a couple days already, of my “blog every day” commitment to myself. I applaud those bloggers and vloggers out there who have been writing and posting daily for years on end, as it isn’t easy for me to remember to do it every single day … yet. Every day I would think…

The Great Blue Heron on Vancouver Island

Birding, Nature, PhotographyBy brendajohimaJuly 11, 20192 Comments

I never intended to become a birder, it just kind of happened, and now I cannot get enough of it. I still would not call myself a birder; just one photographer who loves to be in the presence of birds as often as possible. I have been learning a ton and having so much fun.…

Barred Owls on Denman Island

Birding, Nature, PhotographyBy brendajohimaJuly 9, 20194 Comments

All of a suddenly out of nowhere, without warning, she swooped down right in front of the feet of one of my friends and grabbed a vole and flew off into the back forest to feed her owlet.

RAIN Dancing on Horsetails

Nature, PhotographyBy brendajohimaJuly 8, 2019Leave a comment

The best time to make photos, if you don’t want any company, and to find peace and solitude, is to go out in the rain into the forest with camera. Why is nobody else in there in the rain? The colours are so vibrant, the multitude of greens so lush, the scents and smells of…
