Ow man, beautiful!
These kind of shots are exactly why I purchased a camera and visit this forum.

wonderful series. no. 2 from the top is my favorite because the clouds look like a leviathan wall of water about to wrack the valley in the foreground. my second favorite is the "street" shot of bear on the beach in the forest break ...

Nice!

Just how close did you get to this bear? 180mm is not a short lens, but it's not that long either...

You don't work for the Alaskan Tourism board do you??? 🙂
