Everything the Light Touches

The summer of 2024 I was camping with a few photographers in Chinitna Bay within Lake Clark National Park, which hosts one of the densest brown bear populations in the world. When we watched the light rays emerge over the mountains, we knew we had to position ourselves near the field where a bear might wish to graze on the protein-rich sedge. Just as the light spilled through, a bear finally emerged from the burm and walked out into the field.

In the late hours in June of 2025, two full-curl Dall sheep rams stood on a small outcropping in Denali National Park, Alaska, bathed in the soft light of the midnight sun. My brother, a friend, and I watched quietly as the rams moved with calm confidence, their large horns silhouetted against the pink sky. After the fall rut, the rams congregate into bachelor groups away from the ewes and lambs and remain in these groups for the rest of the year.
