these are amazing! Although it's a hard call, my favorite might be this action shot of a beaver:

How many shots did you take over the course of your trip?

What you've shared is simply out of this world good. Thanks!

thanks everybody, in answer to your question hooky, over 7000 images and 30 or so videos.

To get the iridescent colors to show up like that (example-the neck of the loon) is that post-processing, selection of setting, or filter? Just curious. You seem to get a depth of color way beyond what I can get.

Sometimes you just nail the image, and are lucky as I was.This was all camera settings and sun was in right spot to shine on birds neck. As we say in Alaska, sometimes the bear gets you, sometimes you get the bear.I only use filters for sunrise/sunset and Milky Way when there is a lot of man made light. A gentleman never tells if he post-processes.
