Some images from a September trip to Katmai and Fairbanks. Working from the elevated platforms at Katmai doesn’t always provide the composition one hopes for, but experiencing the bears safely and in such a way that doesn’t impede their natural activities seems a worthwhile tradeoff. My first experience with northern lights had me planning a return almost immediately.
Thanks for looking
