GOODBYE Tetons!!!!!



This morning i started to cry...gave many huggs to friends i have met and spend time shooting photography at Tetons...Sad and tierful i left....I drove 245 miles (usualy i dont drive more then 300 miles a day ...as i dont rush to nowhere)through canyon that had more snow then actualy tetons itself...Looks like that south route took lots more snow storm then north site of tetons...
Saw a bald eagle on a way feeding on a road kill...coudnt possibly park with RV and vehicle in tow and road was to narrow...frusg and narrotrating as he was sitting so beautifuly on a fence near kill...saw another eagle down the road few miles further but it wasnt bald eagle....lso coudnt stop...
Road was winding and narrow and no sun, cold and almost frozen...Didnt enjoy much that ride but i made it down of the mountains.....Tomorrow morning i will continiue my journey south...I am still in Wyoming tonight...Still chance of bad weather and snow storm this weekend...through colorado and wyoming and the route i am taking...However i am on Interstate and wide open road so i feel safe...
Oh yes i stopped when i was able and sure enough Highway patrol came by...Asking me if everything is okay...I said i just stopped to get my electric blanket...to cover my lap when i am driving and feel warm...
Right now i am still wounded and sad...I asked my friend to look after my 4-legged friends....she promissed me she will...I shall return next year....I miss this place already and will continiue to miss it till May 1st...
I have in plan to shoot migrating birds down south, pehaps going to Mcallen,TX and ofcourse Arizona..Tomorrow my journey will continiue south...

SNOW Finaly ARRIVED here


Well Snow finaly Arrived at Grand Tetons National Park...and i am sad to say I have to make preparation to get down of these mountains and head down to Arizona....Every time i leave this place i cry.....and i get emotional....eversince i have first visited here in 1979.....
It will take me few weeks to get over it...Ofcourse Arizona have lots to offer as far photography goes....different ambient and scenery though....But idea to deal with high 80's temperature still down south makes me very unhappy.....I love winters and snow...Snow here is in forecast 7-11 inches in next few days...It snowed all day today....it doesnt stick that much...but tomorrow will...as temperatures suposed to drop down to 22F....and next day and next day....I will try to get out and bring some snow scenery on my website..... http://aphoto4you.smugmug.com/
Stay tunned for me...

"Yesterday was a great DAY"


Besides losing my voice couple days ago, i hade a very good day yesterday..........was out in the wilderness all day always searching for new adventure...and ofcourse my bears are my favorites....This bear was photographed with Nikon 600 mm prime lens and it was in new area to me..

Looking for berries he/she was climbing up and down the berry bushes looking for berries that are the furthest away....It was interesting watching while battling with heavy lens to get that right capture....

At 6800 feet elevation everything is so golden and beautiful......My favorite season of the year besides winter and snow...until next enjoy my adventures....For more variety of bears photos visit my website at http://aphoto4you.smugmug.com/

Big Guys Roaming across the LAND



I can sit for hours and watch these Giants roaming across the Wilderness of North America....and in awe i wonder where do they go?

Winter is almost upon us....How do they survive..How they keep warm?
Only in God's given Land these big Giants still roam free and wild....
My love for nature of this kind is endless and i often care in my own mind about these hepless Earth creatchures...May they always roam wild and free!!!!!
