Kamchatka brown bear tour – There now remains just two places left on a trip-of-a-lifetime photographic trip that I am leading to the Kamchatka Peninsula in the Russian Far East next July. Our primary target will be the Russian brown bear or grizzly as it is known in Alaska. Kamchatka remains one of the last great pristine wildernesses on Earth and to even get there we need to fly in by helicopter. I’ve put a link in my bio for anyone that might be interested in grabbing these last two places. As I’ve never been before I’ve posted this image of an Alaskan grizzly bear fishing which I captured a few years ago. Our visit to Kamchatka will coincide with the spectacular salmon spawning and this is pretty much what bears do when they fish. If you can get yourself into the right position, or you have a little bit of luck then you might end up having a full grown grizzly bear running toward you. Of course it helps if there’s a salmon in between you and the bear but these are definitely one of those opportunities when it’s best to get as low to the ground as possible. This not only increases the feeling of intimacy but it also has the effect of distancing the backdrop, allowing the photographer to throw it more out of focus. Of course I would have preferred that this bear wasn’t intersected by the featureless white sky but I was too busy trying to maintain focus on a galloping grizzly to worry about whether the backdrop was going to end up being distracting or not. With subjects like bears the best thing to do is to pick your spot and commit, not keep ferreting and fidgeting and doing anything at all that might interrupt their natural behaviour. This image is filled with things that I’d like to improve and so in Kamchatka I might be able to get a volcano in the backdrop!
