p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · "It's a great day for hockey"


It may be a bit of an obscure quote but "Badger" Bob Johnson coach of the Wisconsin Badgers famously uttered those words. These aren't exactly the same loveable badgers though.
Trying to get shots of these guys was a highlight of the trip. It was after sunset and light was almost non-existent so I really didn't think we'd even get to press the shutter. Then after scurrying to a water hole they stopped and posed for a few seconds.
And oh btw, it's always a great day for hockey!

You got that right!! Every day is an ideal hockey day! I won't badger you about anything in this set Eric. Lovely job in pulling good results from the challenging conditions. Colors look good and there is good detail too.

Nice images, Eric. You seem to have come across quite a variety of critters on this trip
And I've never seen honey badgers digging for honey before .

Nice looking shots, and the video certainly adds to the complete package of the situations you were shooting in and the final product that came from it. Always makes it more interesting when you can see things like that.

Great pics Eric! I watched the video and could hear Tim "blasting" away.

What a trip you guys had. Can I put my name on a list for the future?
