Shooting in the fog

So most photographers wont or don't like shooting when its cloudy or foggy. I have found it to be rewarding to say the least. This first picture is the first one that made me realise that these types of photos are kinda cool. Plus this is the most famous Grizzly on the planet right now. Meet Bear 399 and her not one, not two, not three, but four cubs. I took this photo back in 2020. The fog was thick as you can see. Having just the outline of the five of them like this is just such a cool vision. And so this was the catalyst for me and pictures in the fog. I made a trip this week to capture wildlife in the fog, and the other photos that fallow are the ones from that trip.
The two above are showing just how thick the fog was that day.
The two above are a couple of my favorites from that day. The next is a Kestrel that gave me the chance to shoot him looking in every derection. The best one to me is the one where he is looking straight at me.
The last two are of Snow Geese. I didn't think they would turn out, but they did.

Every so often I am going to post some pictures that arent "just" from the latest trip. but are just random pictures that I happen to like. I may or may not have a comment about a photo.

Sorry to jump a blog post ahead on you, but things happen and sometimes its for the better. This is one of those times. I have been planning on getting a new camera for a while now and had been saving up to do just that. Last week though the camera gods smiled on me and I not only was able to get the camera I wanted, I was able to get the lens and adapters and even some extra batteries. Now all this without dipping into my savings so thats a bonus. So now that I got all that I needed to go test it out, so where did I go? Why I went to Turnbull National wildlife resurve naturely. The camera I got is the Canon R7, its a mirrorless crop sensor. So that means that all my EF lenses wouldn't work with the camera inless I put an adapter on the lens. Now when I am spending that kind of money I do my resurch so I new what I needed and how I would configure the camera for my type of photography. The camera came in Tuesday so I spent a good part of my evening setting it up the way I...

I dub thee "Shaggy"

Day one in Yellowstone wasn't a big bear day. (Not that day two was either) I seen one Black Bear cub and couldn't get a good photo of it as I was stopped on the road with no where to pull over. I snapped a quick shot of it in the shade as it was walking away from me. Not worth posting the photo of so I wont. (see how I am) Day two I seen two count them TWO Black Bears. One was petty far away but the photos turned out okay-iish so I will post one for the first photo of this blog. see if you can find it. The second one was much, much closer and I was able to get some really good shots of it eating Ants, Termites and or Grubs. (I wasn't that close to see what it was eating) It tore into a log at one point and was digging in the ground as well as walking along logs and eating something. Now the Title of this post is me naming something "Shaggy" It was this Bear. One look at it and you'll know why I named it that. I don't know if its a male or female, its y...
