The American author Wallace Stegner, who wrote about the need to preserve the West, portrayed the Prairie landscape as “a distance without limits, a horizon that did not bound the world but only suggested endless space beyond.” How truly fitting this description is of Grasslands National Park, located in southwestern Saskatchewan, just north of the Montana border.

BIO

Following a 20 year career in the biological sciences, Mike Grandmaison shifted his focus to become a full time professional photographer in 1996 devoting his time more or less evenly between stock and assignment photography. He shoots for a broad range of corporate and editorial clients, in fields ranging from agriculture to architecture and from forest to factory. Mike' s passion for photography, particularly his ability to capture the intimate details of thnatural world, has won him numerous commissions from clients across Canada, the U.S. and Europe. His images have been published worldwide by National Geographic, Canadian Geographic, Geo, Audubon, Sierra, Ford, Loblaws, Canadian Gardening, Canada Post, Canadian Wheat Board, Investor's Group, Merrill Lynch, CN, Nature's Best and the Smithsonian Institute to mention a few. His fine art prints of the natural world adorn offices of corporations, businesses and homes across the country and abroad. Mike also contributed to four postage stamp projects and his images appear in countless calendars and books each year. His coffee table book "CANADA" became a national bestseller early on and his latest book on the Canadian Rockies will be released in April. Mike is a regular contributor to Outdoor Photography Canada magazine and lives in "balmy" Winnipeg.
