Shane Turgeon

What an incredible chase day yesterday (7.16.22)! Five different cells from 4pm to 10pm, starting in Ponoka. Here are my fave shots from the 3 best set ups. Lacombe 730pm NE Red Deer 810pm SE Red Deer 9pm #abstorm #shareyourweather #stormchasing

🚨⚠️Unhappy with ECCC Wx social media accounts being deactivated?? I encourage you to voice your concerns at this link!!!!!!!

This is highly disappointing and a huge step backwards in public weather alerts, Knowledge and reporting for Canadian Citizens. Not only is the @ECCCWeatherMB account shutting down, All of the ECCC X pages are shutting down. If you do not agree with this decision I Highly recommend you write to the Minister of Environment and express your concerns. @juliedabrusin julie.dabrusin@parl.gc.ca

@YounkShack @BraydonMoreSo @SeanSchofer @ReedTimmerUSA @ratzlaff @ForbesRicky @adolwyn @ABStormChaser @MhairiAMcDo @PrairieChasers Can’t wait dude!

Going back and watching all of discovery channel “storm chasers.” Getting excited for the 2025 season. Got a plan to get back out again this summer!

@LeifyGreenery Thank you! I shoot primarily with the @NikonCanada Z 8 and a wide variety of their lenses. But I also have a Z 6II that I use as well.

@ShaneTurgeon Amazing shots! What do you shoot with?

Last night was absolutely unreal! Probably the best aurora show I’ve ever seen in my life and I’ve seen a few great ones!

@CTVdavidspence Thank you, David!

@ShaneTurgeon Well deserved Shane…congratulations!

Big news! Im beyond thrilled and honoured to have been named the 2024 Canadian Geographic Photographer of the Year! This is about as big an award as one can get in Canadian nature photography and I’m so excited to have won!

@RyanVoutilainen Thank you, Ryan!

A huge congratulations to @ShaneTurgeon, winner of Canadian Photographer of the Year 2024! 🎉 Nicely done Shane and can’t wait to find you out in the field doing what you do best again soon! (Hopefully under the meso) 👏🏻

The week of never ending aurora just keeps on giving! Last night was another absolutely incredible show!

@WhidbeyWXGuy @ratzlaff @adolwyn Awesome! So stoked to see this!

I got to finally use my new astro lens that I bought from @ShaneTurgeon. It worked great! @ratzlaff @adolwyn

I was about to head to bed before the sky to the north decided to erupt with colors! I am glad I stayed up!! #wawx #aurora

@RyanVoutilainen @MarksGonePublic @webtwozero @PeterVogel @ratzlaff All Star Telescope in Edmonton is one of the best Canadian retailers out there and has a great online store.

@MarksGonePublic @webtwozero @PeterVogel Hmm… I have no idea. Big stretch but maybe @ShaneTurgeon or @ratzlaff may know or can point you in the right direction even tho they are Alberta based.

Want to see #ACS3, Advanced Composite Solar Sail System satellite, passing over Vancouver tonight? Best shot may be between 9:12 PM and 9:14 PM, almost directly overhead, moving S to N. Satellite has been tumbling. Looking for a bright flare or two. @webtwozero @MarksGonePublic
