In this inspirational presentation, Kyle Blaney shares his favorite nature photos and the life lessons he learned in pursuit of their capture. One day seven years ago, Kyle watched a Kermode bear hunt salmon and sat in stunned silence as a humpbacked whale repeatedly breached. He decided that day to leave his comfortable software career and explore Canada’s vast and magnificent wilderness instead. He is perpetually trying to duplicate that day but doesn’t ever expect to succeed.
