“Morning Stroll” by Christy Grinton
Captured at sunrise along the coastline near Victoria, British Columbia, this image features a raccoon foraging along the shoreline—scanning for leftover crabs and fish discarded by otters. The soft morning light created ideal conditions, casting a near-perfect reflection in the calm water. A serene moment of coastal wildlife behavior beautifully framed by golden hour tones.
