Uncovering Alaska's Large Mammals—Course Preview

Doug Gardner
Duration:   1  mins

Description

Professional wildlife photographer Doug Gardner remarked that his trip to Alaska to photograph big game animals was nothing short of amazing. In this video series, Doug shows you how he captures images of brown bear, caribou, moose, and more. In a shallow mountain lake, he photographs the Alaskan brown bear feeding on spawning salmon. To capture the herding caribou, he crawls the cold tundra until he gets within range of the herd, then waits patiently for the photo opportunities. Later, Doug photographs a bull moose and his cows feeding in the willow thickets of a majestic mountain valley. As a bonus, Doug interviews his guide and pilot, Glen Alsworth, whose grandparents homesteaded in the Alaskan wilderness.

Bravo traffic, Cessna 733 Kilo Delta departing Northeast to the channel. Left turnout southbound, port eltor. Well, my trip to Alaska has been nothing short of amazing, and I encourage each and every one of you to visit Alaska and explore it for yourself. Over the last few days, I've had the opportunity to photograph caribou, brown bear, moose and a variety of other species. I'd like to give a special thanks to Glen Ellsworth Junior and Carl Johnson for taking time to share with us this wonderful, wonderful place to photograph wildlife. Remember, it's not just about the photograph, it's the outdoor experience.
