Fishing in Kamchatka

Kamchatka bear. Olga Bay. Eastern Siberia. Salmon spawning season. This is a remote, uninhabited stretch of coast. After a zodiac landing I had walked about 10 kilometers in welington boots along a beach covered in bear footprints, then through a forest and river. We were about to turn back when this bear came along the shore, entered the river, and started fishing, about 15 meters away.

That's a hair-standing-up-on-the back-of-your-neck kinda experience and shot, Di. Ace result, and what a lovely shot to look back at to remind you of your adventures. Top drawer!

It is! I was standing stock still apart from the camera hand...against the river bank. Our only protection...a stout pole carried by the boat's chef! I loved it so much....

Diane Putnam ^club has replied to Diana Australis ^club

Yeah, no kidding! I'm sure salmon is way more tasty than humans, anyway.
