In January 2025, host Lynn Wyminga headed to her neighbour’s home gallery on Amherst Island to speak with photography Don “Woody” Woodiwiss of Woodiwiss Photography. We explore his journey from film photography in high school to creating photographs of birds and landscapes. Woody shares insights into his creative process, from scouting locations and planning shots to waiting patiently in the field—often in freezing temperatures. He also discusses the evolving technology behind his work, including the use of pre-capture features to seize the perfect moment. Click the images below to view larger.
