Last Days of the Salmon Run

Katmai National Park, Alaska

Autumn happens quickly on the Alaska Peninsula. As the days become shorter, temperatures drop and the high country is blanketed in the first snows of the fall. In this image, two bears search for the the last salmon of the year. They will soon journey to theses surrounding mountains to hibernate through the winter as they wait for the next year’s run of salmon.

Wild Mustangs live in protected areas across the American West where these beautiful animals survive and thrive as they have for hundreds of years. Ostara, a four-year-old filly, was born on Easter. Her name, which celebrates the Spring Equinox, was a precursor to the word Easter.  

 

Denali Reflections

Denali National Park, Alaska

The north end of Wonder Lake in Denali National Park is one of the most beautiful places I’ve experienced and holds so many special memories for me.  Wonder Lake sits around 2000 feet in elevation and Mt. Denali towers over the landscape over 20,000 feet above sea level. Clouds often shroud the Alaska Range and clear mornings like this one are rare. The autumn colors and gentle mist create a stunning display of true wilderness.

Sunrise Gaze

Katmai National Park, Alaska

As the salmon run winds down in late fall, brown bears often patrol the lakeshore looking for the last few sockeye salmon of the season. Having completed their life cycle by spawning in the same waters where they were born, these fish give back to the land by providing an amazing amount of nutrition to the surrounding animals and plants. Preparing to hibernate, the bears remain vigilant in their search for food. Taking a break in her search, this female sat for moment to search the water for fish and even perhaps enjoy the beautiful sunrise over the surrounding mountains.

Mustangs and Antelopes

Western Colorado

As you may know, wild horses are often rounded up in the American West. When the animals are rounded up, many of them are put up for adoption. All of the horses in this image were adopted by a compassionate foundation which has provided this private land as a long-term home for them. A small band of antelope shared the land with these horses and created a true scene of the Wild West.
 

Daybreak Clearing

Denali National Park, Alaska

Fall can be a magical time in Alaska. Between increasingly intense storms, breaks in the weather can be beautiful and stunning. Remaining moisture in the air created a think layer of fog over the lake and river inlet as a high-pressure system approached. The sun rises slowly in the Alaskan fall as it travels in a shallow arc above the horizon. The gradual warming of the morning eventually started to dissipate the fog and create a beautiful combination of warm light across the landscape. This large male brown bear has had a very successful summer catching salmon. In this image, he half-heartedly looks around for a few last salmon to catch before heading to the mountains to hibernate.
