Nature Saskatchewan Spring Meet

Saturday evening banquet

The highlight of Saturday evening will be the banquet with an after-dinner program by Jason Bantle, Celebrating Canada's Wildlife.

Jason Bantle has been capturing the beauty of Canada's nature on film for over ten years. This 45 minute presentation will be a journey through the lens of some of the most breath-taking images Jason has captured. All of Jason's images are captured in the wild using 35mm film. No filters or digital enhancements are used on any of his prints. He hopes you enjoy them!

Jason began his photography career while conducting biological research on several species of carnivore in Canada's central Arctic. He completed his Master of Science degree with a research project on the Arctic Fox, meanwhile falling in love with the beauty that Northern Canada has to offer. This influenced him to want to share his amazing experiences with others through his photographs. Jason's images are from across Canada and Alaska and are all captured in the wild. He went on to work as an eco-guide, leading people on trips to see and photograph polar, grizzly, and black bears as well as beluga and orca whales.

Jason opened his first public art gallery at Christopher Lake in Northern Saskatchewan in the spring of 2005. He has since expanded and now has galleries in Waskesiu and Saskatoon in Saskatchewan as well as Canmore and Banff in the mountains of Alberta.
