Hi Ivan,
I am always blown away by your photos. How do you get such close shots? All of your shots, be they whales, bears, eagles etc. look like you are about 5 feet away. What equipment were you using for these shots and could you tell some of the story behind the shots? What were the magnificent birds doing and stuff like that. Cheers.

Ivan, how do you improve perfect? You make a guy wonder if you didn't capture one of these birds and tie him up in a tree to take pictures. Awesome!!!!


It took many years of high effort and frustration to get my first decent eagle shot.I can assure you all my eagles are wild and unrestrained by any means.And they hate photographers.Thank you,Ivan.

Ivan ... I always check your posts first. These are phenomial! Your shots always inspire me to keep trying. :-)


I see eagles every day but if you want a decent shot you find out it is close to "mission impossible". So I kept trying and trying...
Thanks,Ivan.
