These are all terrific photographs. Excellent compositions.
Even at 600mm I think you are too close on the first one!
Hard to pick a favorite from such a strong set of images, but I really like the last one.

Love these environmental portraits and the action you captured: grandeur and insight together.

The cub pics are delightfully whimsical--made me smile.

Did a great job of capturing their innocence. Love it.

Alaska is definitely on my bucket list.

, we were close, but I wasn't as close as this image seemed. I pulled a tight crop from this image.

It was on our list as well. The challenge with Alaska is the same with Africa. Once you go, you can't stop thinking about going back.
