13 beautiful, dramatic and touching photos of the great Canadian outdoors

FISHING: 1st Place

Photographer: Jason Maciejewski

Where: Oldman River, Alberta

When: September 2015

Details: An avid photographer for roughly six years, Maciejewski says he now takes his camera on all of his outdoor outings, which often involve fly fishing. He caught and netted this cutthroat trout on what he says was a perfect late-summer day. “You know the phrase ‘This picture doesn’t do it justice, you had to see it for yourself?’” he asks. “Well, on that day on the river, the photo turned out exactly how it looked!”
