Bald Eagle, Alaska – Image 2566

I switched to full-time digital photography last May and this image was one of my first shoots. When a bald eagle glides down to pick a herring off the water, it will often transfer the catch from its feet to its beak in midair. I was shooting the eagle with my 80-400 totally racked out ...

Black Wolf “Romeo”, Mendenhall Lake, Juneau, Alaska – Image 2561

“My What Big Teeth You Have” quote Little Red Riding Hood I have been trying to get within shooting range of the wolf for years. Although this wolf is used to people, like most animals he maintains a certain distance before moving or being displaced by approaching people. I have learned that ...
