Catherine BabaultThis holiday season instead of lining the pockets of billionaires by buying gifts on Amazon "because it's convenient", support small businesses, artisans and artists near you. Many of them are struggling in this challenging economy to keep their doors open. YOU can help.

Catherine BabaultFor #WildlifeWednesday here's a photo of a harbour seal resting on an islet in Quatsino Sound. We were on a boat and kept a respectful distance because the seals were resting. We didn't want them to waste energy by jumping into the water.
From my archives.

Catherine BabaultToday I gave a private photo workshop to a young aspiring photographer. He had the opportunity to photograph a killdeer, bald eagles, vultures, the rare Northern bobwhite, landscapes and intimate portraits of flowers. We also did some ICM. A great day with a promising nature photographer.

If someone had told me growing up in a small village in France that one day I would be a wildlife photographer shooting bears on Vancouver Island, I wouldn't have believed it.
Follow your dreams; it requires huge sacrifices, but you only live once, so you might as well make the most of it.
