Photos

From Page 1 for things to photograph. The daily routine has two purposes: one to keep up my photography skill; the second to stay fit. Carrying a 20-lb backpack while hiking around is a great way to be ready when I need to hustle in the field.”

If you have never seen Franko’s work, you should not be surprised. She does not promote her photos, but does do an annual calendar.

“I do not market my work. I do one project each year and that is to produce two calendars. It started in 2017 with a calendar of my Algonquin Park images. Now I produce one wildlife and one rural Ontario each year,” said Franko.

Any proceeds realized go right back into wildlife and community charities.

“This year $100 was donated to Hobbitsee Wildlife Centre, $150 to the Owl Foundation, $150 to West Lincoln Community Care, $100 Helping Haiti Canada,” she noted, adding her donations resulted in a net loss for her on the year as she had not accounted for high gas prices when making deliveries of the calendars.

“Marketing is not my thing. LOL We will see if it is worth while doing calendars again next year”

The shots which earned her the Canadian Geographic recognition were captured in two very different places - Algonquin Park and Nunavik in northern Quebec.

For “Trifecta”, it meant going out pre-dawn several days, locating the moose and setting up in a location just to await their possible movement toward her.

“They snort kind of like a horse occasionally and once I hear it I slowly make my way in that direction but not too close as it is usually way too early for pictures. I need to wait for the light,” said Franko.

On that occasion, she spotted two other photographers which she guessed would steer the moose off their expected course, so she hustled down a trail and set up at a new spot.

“I guessed that the moose would come down a parallel trail. Not only did the moose I had seen come down the trail but so did two others with it,” she recalled.

“I had just enough time to tuck down way off the trail as I watched them come over a ridge with the sunlight glowing behind them. I was using a 400mm lens and the camera settings for this were “a wing and a prayer” I didn’t have time to think... Sometimes gambles like this pay off.”

The shot of the musk oxen captured the judges’ attention.

“An image that highlights the importance of family in this species from the far north. The intense focus of the bull left of centre and how the group has formed around the calves superbly illustrates how musk oxen protect their young from predators.”

That shot was taken during a trip to Nunavik’s Wolf Lake Camp, a flyin destination with no running water and no cell service and solar lights.

Her days included 10-18 km hikes with a guide. Franko’s photo below was taken “at a safe distance” with a 500mm lens atop a granite ridge.

This photo will be published on Canadian Geographic’s website and in the March/April 2023 issue.
