Photo of the Day - Spirit Bear

I'm excited to show off my first of many images from last week's spirit bear photography adventures in the Great Bear Rainforest. We had an amazing week in the rainforest, topped off by sightings of two different white kermode bears.

This male kermode bear cruised up and down the creek in front of us four times one day

It was a thrilling week with a great group of like-minded photographers from across Canada and the United States, and I'm already looking forward to going back next year and trying my luck at the end of October.  That's right, the 2012 Spirit Bear Photography Tour has now been finalized for October 10th-17th in 2012, so watch for details on the trip on October 15th when I'm back from my Grizzly Bear Photography Tours in B.C. that begin on  Sunday!

I'm also excited to have two new tours beginning next year: an adventure to the Queen Charlotte Islands from July 1-8, 2012 and a photo trip of a lifetime to the Khutzeymateen Grizzly Bear Sanctuary (the only grizzly bear sanctuary in Canada!) from May 9-16, 2012.  Watch for full details on my Canadian Wildlife Photography Tours website in mid-October!

Note that as always, prior clients will get first dibs on the 2012 trips, tours, and workshops on a first-come first-serve basis.

Happy shooting!

John
