Nat Hab's 2024 Guest Photo Contest

Species: Brown Bear | Location: Bear Camp, Lake Clark National Park, Alaska, United States Of America

On the last day of bear viewing at Bear Camp this summer, we were experiencing various weather conditions. When this photo was taken, a brown bear was eating sedges within the field as the clouds were overtaking the mountains behind the tree line of the field. To capture the ecosystem of the Brown Bear I zoomed out to capture the scene and provide depth to the photo.

About The Photographer

Enjoys photographing wildlife, wildflowers, landscapes and macro, Entered digital photography in 2016 in preparation to first NatHab trip, Hidden Yellowstone Safari and have continued since, whether it be in my yard, at local reserves and parks, during personal travel or subsequent NatHab trips. While photographing, I prefer to vary the settings on my Nikon cameras in order to capture the scene as close to how I observe it as possible.
