"Your" and "you're" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"They're", "their", and "there" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"Fare" and "fair" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one. The proper expression is "moot point", NOT "mute point".

I get to stand around with game a lot more than most I guess because you see a lot of people feel very afraid around something like say Bears. So I just did a little ... well .. movie on the camera to show some of who and what I do. I do wish I had a gopro. lol

People regularly what to know how to get better detail.. better images.. I just stand in the way more I guess.

New kind of video lol bit like the old days..

Lol. I know lol. I was scrolling through the card and came across it just like that. Lol. So there you have it.

Honestly though it tells a great deal of a story of a wildlife shooter in the moment. All I saw was through the viewfinder as usual. O and I like being different.. maybe everyone will start making movies my way now .. lmao

Real wildlife photographers have been up close and personal with big game since the camera was invented. They get the footage so people at home can watch Tv in ahh.

National Geographic has millions of hours of footage and stills of just that. Not everyone should be doing it.. I agree with that 100%

In reality bears are nothing compared to 1000lbs Moose ... now they will kill you fast. and more likely to get upset.

One of my all-time favorite subjects. Especially when they go air born.

My opinion (for what it's worth) was that these ladies were a bit close to the sea lions. But the sea lions didn't seem to mind. There were signs at the entrance to the shore area telling people not to approach the wildlife.

There was another place up the road that said "keep out" due to the cliffs being unstable. I saw someone hop the fence, probably to take pictures of all the birds. A minute later I saw all the birds flying. If the animal's behavior is altered, my opinion is that one is generally too close.

That is great! . I guess that means that you get to photograph "real" moose, instead of these little Shiras Moose that we have down here in the lower 48.

What is it that you guide for? . Do you get to spend much time photographing when you're up there, or does guiding take almost all of your time?

What other critters do you get opportunities with up there during the autumn?
