Just got back from Alaska Aug 12. We hit Redoubt Bay, Georgaphic Harbor and Silver Salmon Creek Lodge at lake Clark NP. Rainy the whole 8 days we were there. Saw few bears. I love your sow and 4 cubs shots, especially 88057 and 87968. Whre did you find the most bears and sows with cubs?

For Irene, Re: Menedenhall Glacier. I did not go to Juneau on this trip, so I do not have photos of Mendenhall Glacier. I did stop there on a prior trip, but it was long ago and I was still shooting film back then, so I don't have any images readily available.
Irene Rhein 18-Aug-2010 01:34
Any from the Mendenhall Glacier...that was me in BEEN TO ALASKA
YOUR SCENIC SHOTS ARE FAB.

Stunningly spectacular! When you were showing them to us (Oklahomans)on your camera they looked great but here....amazing. Great job. Thank you for sharing.
Barbara Read and Fred Schaad15-Aug-2010 06:19
Spectacular gallery. V
Bob Pelkey15-Aug-2010 02:03
Masterful collection here, Tim.
Good choice to use the 200mm zoom down "the trail" at one point.
I'm not too excited with how your 300mm served you on the trip (contrast and detail) although "Jacuzzi Bear" is appealing.
The 500mm served you extremely well, but I'm also amazed with what you got with the 200mm zoom.
The gallery is very well presented as always.
40-12248 ranks as one of my very favorites here.
It appears you could use some sleep.
