Nature nominee

One of the highlights of my first trip to Katmai National Park this year was photographing the large male coastal brown bears trying to catch salmon at the top of Brooks Falls. The salmon would swim upstream and try to jump up the falls, sometimes into the mouths of a waiting bear. I sat for hours trying to capture this perfect moment when the salmon was about to enter the bear's mouth and the bear was facing in my direction.
