I'm not really good at things like an #introduction I've been curious about mastodon for a while and I decided to finally dive in. I'm planning to wean myself off of platforms controlled by the oligarchy. Among other things I'm a #photographer these days its mostly wildlife and landscape, and where I live in Tsawwassen, BC is home to some amazing birds. I also love BC's coastal forests and try to spend as much time in them as I can. When I'm not out with a camera I'm working in big tech. 55 comments
@mayo Hey Mayo! great to bump into you here too! Thanks, I try to get out and walk everyday if I can't bike, etc and taking the camera with me is good motivation!

Photographer from the Island! hello from across the Strait 🇨🇦 @heatherbee_photography Hi Heather, nice to meet you. So far I'm really enjoying it here!  @cmurray Welcome to the fediverse! That photo of an owl in flight is a really beautiful photo! @jyrgenn Chris has some awesome shots of owls in flight on his website here. Btw, @cmurray you need a better way to share specific images from your site! I was hoping to share one of my personal favorites with Jyrgen but can't link it specifically. @cmurray Welcome to Mastodon! Lots of great photographers here, so you are in good company. Just follow (hashtag)photography and put that hashtag on your posts and you’ll find lots of people interested in your work (like me!)  @cmurray beautiful shots 🤩🦉 check out #BirdsOfMastodon if you haven't yet and welcome to the fedi :fediverse: :fedi_mercury_coin:  @cmurray Hey, and welcome!

Birds seem to especially be popular Welcome to the Fediverse ! As a photographer, you should also give a try to #pixelfed. It is a also part of the Fediverse, especially designed for photographers and thus... linked to Mastodon 👋  @cmurray     @cmurray@cosocial.ca hello and welcome to #Fediverse  @cmurray those short eared owls are so cool! we get them in parts of the UK/scotland too but I've not had the chance to see one myself - their habitat is a bit further south than where I typically visit. maybe one day @murraylivingston I hope you get the chance one day, they are incredible birds to observe while hunting!  @cmurray waves a big welcome to you. And your photos are sublime. Those razor sharp yellow eyes on that owl. I am mesmerized.  @cmurray Yay! Another bird (and more) photographer. Some others you may want to follow: @Jgbird, @Catlynn, @distrustful_dinos, @Albatrossity,   |
