My newest body of work, “Inside The Arctic Circle” is the result of my six-week excursion to the Canadian Arctic that took place in the summer of 2011. I was a working member of an Environment Canada research team that has been returning to the same base camp at Karrak Lake to study one particular colony of Ross’s and lesser snow geese in the Queen Maud Gulf Bird Sanctuary for 20 years. Research consisted primarily of nest and egg counts to obtain the population ecology of the colony, but also involved the collecting of Ross’s and lesser snow geese in order to thoroughly examine them and get a better idea of the overall condition of the colony. It was while out collecting this data that I was able to photograph this part of the world very few people have ever experienced.
