Re: 2021 VIP Trip
Sometimes you just nail the image, and are lucky as I was.This was all camera settings and sun was in right spot to shine on birds neck. As we say in Alaska, sometimes the bear gets you, sometimes you get the bear.I only use filters for sunrise/sunset and Milky Way when there is a lot of man made li...

VIP Photography Trip, 2021
Just returned from my 15 day Volunteer in Park Photography trip. I can not say enough about the NPS Rangers and volunteers that helped make this trip a success and an adventure that exceeded my expectations tenfold. From being transported around island on Ranger vessels to spots where I basecamped f...

Re: Tents in Shelters
On our first trip to the island, I put our tent up in the shelter at Moskey. The wind was ripping down the lake and my tarp wasn't enough, so we put up the tent in an effort to help stay warm with another wind break. Now picnic tables in the shelters...

Campfires
just watched a video on youtube posted on June 19 of a group of folks with campfire going strong at Lake Richie. Correct me if I am wrong campfires are not allowed at Richie.
