HUNTING: 1st Place

Photographer: Yuki Sageishi

Where: Nicola Valley, B.C.

When: November 2016

Details: Yuki Sageishi took this excellent photo of her husband, John, returning from his first-ever pheasant hunt, accompanied by Gracie the retriever leading the way. “I went along for the ride to take some photos of John hunting,” Sageishi says. “It was a very windy day and the birds were hiding in the tall bush grass.” Nonetheless, as the photo reveals, the happy hunting duo did not come home empty-handed.
