Coho and Chinook Salmon jumping out of river to clear small waterfall, on way upriver to spawn, Washington, USA from Brandon Cole MARINE PHOTOGRAPHY on Vimeo.
A little while back Melissa and I spent a couple days
watching coho and chinook salmon fighting their way upriver, on their mission
to spawn (and die). The determination of these fish to surmount any obstacle,
their dedication and persistence to see their life's journey to the bitter end
against all the odds, is one of nature's most inspirational stories.
Unfortunately the water clarity was very poor due to heavy rains, so this shoot
only yielded topside pictures and video (see clip above). No underwater pictures
this time.
We have, of course, photographed this icon of the Pacific
Northwest many times over the years, and have been fortunate enough to create
many underwater salmon photos, some of which you can see on our web site using
