While working on a video project with
the people of Hartley Bay and the

see a spirit bear. "I felt so privileged to
be able to photograph him as he
tucked into the pink salmon he'd just
caught," he says.

Location: Near Three
Guardsmen Lake, Northern B.C.
She'd planned a whale-watching cruise
in Alaska, but a grizzly bear family
along Highway 3 became the main
event for Crystal McEwan. "I never did
get my humpback whale pictures," she
says, "but I was perfectly content with
my grizzly experience."
