The typical dress code for photographing birds on the tundra outside of Barrow is chest high waders. You can't low enough in the water to get a low angle on your subject. Here, I was sitting in the water with the camera just above water level. This is one of my favorite loon shots. Hope you enjoy.

Nice shot!

Barrow is a very unique place providing lots of photo opportunities. June, the water is still full of ice. The whale fisherman are getting ready to catch their one whale per year allowance. By the way, one whale per year feeds the entire community for a whole year.

I would like to hear more about your trip there, if you care to share. I was there for about a week on a photo trip with a group of photographers a couple of years ago.
All my best
RL
