I meet my group in Juneau tonight for the start of another Alaska bear and whale photo tour! Probably my favorite trip of the year thanks to the variety of subject matter. Speaking of that – I do have a little bit of room on next year’s trips. This whale is from last year – I hope we see more of this!  See you in a little over a week!

A couple of friends and fellow wildlife image makers (in fact, amazing wildlife image makers!) have started a new wildlife photography  podcast and came down to Seward last Friday and recorded a fun conversation covering lots of ground!  I met both of them many years ago in Denali, and Mark and I shared a wonderful day with some beautiful bull caribou – something we relive on the podcast.  Check it out if you have the chance.  Wild and Exposed podcast.

On the first bear trip we had a very cooperative bald eagle!  Cool to seem him so close!  This was with a Canon 100-400 on a full frame 5D IV in aperture priority with +1 exposure compensation.  Slightly cropped.
