Bald Eagle Number 88 – tagged for airport eviction research
iPhone photo field report: Over a three year period, I have talked about a leucistic, white-tipped bald eagle, that I have watched and it is always interesting to see where this eagle shows up. A few days ago, I spotted another special bald eagle while on the Chilkat River in the Alaska Chilkat Bald Eagle [...]
My office when photographing bald eagles on the Chilkat River
iPhone photo field report: Here’s a closeup peek of my “office” when photographing bald eagles on the Chilkat River in the Alaska Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve in southeast Alaska. Most of my bald eagle photography is with my Nikon 600mm f/4 lens on a Nikon D3 body which are mounted on a heavy duty tripod [...]
Even more snow!
iPhone photo field report: I’ll probably stay in today. I went out to the car this morning and the 18 inches of additional NEW snow was up to my mid thigh (it’s drifting a lot with the high winds). I shoveled for a couple of hours and you would hardly know that I did. I’m [...]
Chilkat River snowscape
iPhone photo field report: I simply love the snow that has been falling in the Alaska. Last year, there wasn’t any snow during my time on the Chilkat River photographing the bald eagles. I had hoped for snow, but didn’t get any. This year, I got my wish in a big way (see previous iPhone [...]
Don’t complain the next time it snows
iPhone photo field report: When I worked at the News-Leader in Springfield Mo. the paper ran a huge front page story about an 18 or 21″ snowfall (can’t remember exactly). The headline in huge type simply said “Buried”. Well, this view (photo above) out the kitchen window of where I am staying really brings new [...]
The presence of grizzly bears is always a good omen
iPhone photo field report: Like baseball players, I’m a bit superstitious. In my case, when I see grizzly bear tracks, I know that the photography for the rest of the day will be great. Today I saw lots of fresh grizzly bear tracks in the new snow (iPhone photo above). It was a great day [...]
Endless view of mountains makes you wonder
iPhone photo field report: When you see several hours worth of endless coastal mountains when flying from Seattle to Juneau, you have to wonder how many of these mountains have felt the footsteps of a human being. When I first published this image on the Dengler Images Facebook page, some folks commented that they wish [...]
Rain, rain, go away – an iPhone report
I had collected quite a bit of mud and muck on my car during my recent trip to the Flint Hills prairie in Kansas. Chasing prairie fires on the dirt and gravel back roads left my car seriously encased in the stuff. With all the rain we have received here in Springfield, my car is [...]
iPhone video & photos: Windy day on the Chilkat River
It was a really cold and incredibly windy day today at the office. With sustained gusts of over 55 miles per hour barreling down the Chilkat River causing dust storms making the river valley of the Alaska Chilkat River Eagle Preserve look like it was enveloped in fog. I apologize if the video is a [...]
iPhone photos – Chilkat River, Klehini River, Chilkoot Lake
While these iPhone photos do not show the main focus of my trip to Alaska — photographing bald eagles, the photos do show some of places near my bald eagle photography locations. As the photos show, the rivers are not yet frozen, which is very unusual and not good for my bald eagle photography. When [...]
iPhone video: Reflecting on Mendenhall Lake
This is the first time I have tried a video blog posting from the field using only my iPhone to shoot, edit, and post the video. Unfortunately in this report from the Mendenhall Glacier near Juneau, Alaska, there is virtually no movement in the video due to the unusual lack of wind. (oh well, at [...]
