The Search For Salmon by buckswildlifephotography

This last year up in Alaska, the salmon were late. Fisherman complained on every run of salmon that did finally make it up the rivers this year, but the one’s that really said nothing and just waited patiently was the bears. When the salmon did make it up the bears made up for the lost time that they endured waiting for them. This was the look as they were waiting.

Exhilarating!!!! by buckswildlifephotography

The enjoyment that I get when photographing bears that act themselves and do what bears do is just an enjoyment that I can’t explain. When I can climb in the water with them and not worry about them as Im photographing them as they do what they do, is so exhilarating ……. you almost have to be me to find out what thats like. So when I do get close and taking their images, I have to try and get that same feeling transferred to you so that maybe you might get that same feeling as I get……. at least, that”s what I’m trying for.

What A Beautiful Morning by buckswildlifephotography

When I was at Brook Falls, I had rented me a cabin to stay in. I stayed at Brook Falls for 7 days and I was able to get thousands of images while I was there, but this image still takes me back right now as if I was there at that moment. I took this image right off the little porch of the cabin I was staying in on the last morning of my stay, as I was looking over the landscape and drinking a cup of coffee.

Looking For Mom by buckswildlifephotography

This little guy was looking for mom when I took this image. This is one image from the archives that I found that I have not put up. It was taken at Brooks Falls, when I was across the river on the board walk, walking up to the falls. bit.ly/1hPPsvi
