February 2021 Alaska Magazine cover.

I can remember devouring every issue of this magazine growing up, so having an image on the cover has extra special meaning to me.  It has been a few years since the last cover, so this is a real treat.  I’m honored!  Thanks Alaska Magazine!
  
This was captured early one morning on one of my Alaska bear photo tours.  We were the only ones out in the field that morning which is an extra treat.  We spotted the sow with two cubs from the lodge and made the short walk to them and had just got set up when one of the cubs climbed onto it’s mom’s back!  Plus, they were even facing the rising sun!  A memorable morning for sure.

Pardon a little self promotion, but this fancy award showed up in the mail recently. Actually it if from 2015, but has been in the Alaska Airline Magazine offices. They tell me I won the award for Northwest Excellence in Journalism in the photography category so that sounds very cool. However, the main takeaway – the Flume Trail at Lake Tahoe is an awesome place to mountain bike!

Another new cover in the mail when I got home – this Bell Mapbook!  Also always a treat to be on a Bell’s cover, as it is a family own business – I remember them coming through Glennallen when I was a kid!  We have proudly worked with them for many, may years.

I photographed this cute little cub during one of my June Alaska Bear Photo Tours.  I mention that, as unfortunately one of my regular clients is going to have to cancel his June spot.  This trip usually fills very quickly a year in advance, so this is a bit of a rare opportunity to join me during the best time of year for Brown Bears and cubs!  The dates on June 26th to July 1.  Please call or email if you have any questions or interest in this trip.

Now that I’m back home, I might subject you to just a little bit of shameless self promotion.  But, some of these are just too cool not to share, including the cover of this years Greatland Graphics 2017 Alaska Time calendar!  I’m always proud to be on the cover of any Greatland Graphics product, as they have been producing high quality work featuring Alaska photographers for many years now!  I photographed these two cubs during last June’s Alaska Bear Photo Tour.

This just arrived in the mail this afternoon!  The photo was from last June’s bear tour to Lake Clark National Park.  This calender is published by Greatland Graphics – they do a wonderful series of Alaska calenders.  They have been a valued customer for many many years, and I’m proud to be a part of many of their beautiful products!
