If you pro's are going to go into the woods to shoot. I have a warning that was cited on a Landscape Photography site I visit:

THE NATIONAL PARK SERVICE, IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE ALASKA DEPARTMENT OF FISH AND GAME, RECENTLY ISSUED THIS BULLETIN:

In light of the rising frequency of human-grizzly bear conflicts, the Alaska Department of Fish and Game is advising hikers, hunters and fishermen to take extra precautions and keep alert for bears while in the field.

"We advise outdoorsmen to wear noisy little bells on their clothing so as not to startle bears that aren't expecting them. We also advise outdoorsmen to carry pepper spray with them in case of an encounter with a bear.

It is also a good idea to watch out for fresh signs of bear activity. Outdoorsmen should recognize the difference between black bear and grizzly bear manure:

Black bear manure is comparatively small and contains lots of berries and squirrel fur.

Grizzly bear manure has little bells in it and smells like pepper."


VBG...

If you're interested. That Landscape site is written for Pro's. He has many good reviews of equipment. Gets his hands on the newest. Might help any photographer in the equipment category. luminous-landscape.com
He also has some more basic info for dummies like me who subscribe. But looks to be an excellent source of much info for the best Photographers.
