The Look

Kinda obsessed with her face.

 

#1063 moves through the frost-covered landscape gathering her last bits of food before the ground freezes and she beds down for winter (which she has now done.) Watching her move and search for food with purpose was honestly an emotional experience.

 

This isn't about getting the shot. This is about observation and learning about these animals and their behavior, what they *must* do to survive. I learn something new every time and there is something so incredibly humbling about this. It puts everything else in its place.

 

Relatively speaking, our lives are easy. Everything the creatures I observe do...from birds to bears...is about procreation and survival. It's raw and pure -- there is nothing fake about it, and there is nowhere else I'd rather be. It is always such an honor being a guest in their home. I walk away every time feeling so enriched and thankful.
