Female Cabbage White butterfly enjoying a mid morning snack at Pavan park in Lethbridge Alberta on August 15, 2026.

I could not believe all the butterflies and moths that were out flying around. It was a cooler day and it seems that they were enjoying it as much as I was.

If you’re serious about nature and wildlife photography, there’s one part of your photography workflow you really should understand **the JPEG file.**

We all use JPEGs, but there are a LOT of myths and misunderstandings surrounding them. How much image quality do you actually lose? When is JPEG the right choice? When should you be shooting RAW? And what happens when you repeatedly edit and save a JPEG?

In his latest YouTube video, **Mike Paterson** breaks down the JPEG format in plain language and separates the **truth from the myths** especially important when you’re photographing wildlife, landscapes and those once-in-a-lifetime moments that you simply can’t recreate.

📸 **JPEG Myths: The Truth Every Photographer Should Know**

Whether you’re a beginner trying to understand your camera settings or an experienced photographer who wants to make sure you’re getting the most from your files, this is worth watching.

Because when that perfect bald eagle takes flight, the light hits the mountains just right, or a wildlife encounter happens for only a few seconds… **you want to know exactly what your camera is doing with that image.**

Having lunch at Helen Schuler Nature Center parking lot on August 15, 2026 I was watched very closely by a flock of birds that were feeding in a tree in front of my van. The bird looks almost judgemental 🤣🤣

The buzz at Pavan Park in Lethbridge was amazing on the weekend. This bee was more than happy to do its part with crating a lot of buzz. Fall is fast approaching and the insects and animals know.

Great Blue Heron, Pavan Park Lethbridge. August 15, 2026 I spent about an hour with this Heron watching it sway back and forth as it hunted. The swaying motion imitates the grasses moving to fool any prey.

Breakfast at the Helen Schuler nature center for this young buck. August 11, 2026 the smoke was causing a yellow red cast to the light but this buck paid no attention as he was busy eating some tasty leaves.

If you ever bought a camera that came with a kit lens, you may want to know what kind of quality you can expect from it. In this video I talk about kit lenses and the good and the bad about them. You may not have to upgrade your lenses as soon as you think.

A buck in the morning light. A cool, okay COLD, morning in Lethbridge as the temperature got down to 2C. But the wildlife love the cooler weather. Love the way the deer is hidden in the soft morning light in the Lethbridge River Valley, August 4, 2026.
