Wayne Oakes
Photographing the Whitemud Nature Reserve
Wayne Oakes is one of our region’s true enthusiasts of natural areas.
Having grown up in the woods of Nova Scotia and then serving 33 years in the RCMP—where he developed and honed his superior photography skills—it was only natural that upon his retirement he would return to nature with camera in hand. But beyond taking pictures, he also observes and studies the habits of the fascinating animals, birds, plants, and more.
The Whitemud Ravine Nature Reserve (North) has been Wayne’s focus over the past six years, just over 9000 hours. Wayne will share with us some of his images that illustrate the beautiful and majestic…the big and small…and the odd and unusual. He will also show us some of his gear—both typical and unusual—that he uses to enhance his visits in the woods.
