Wow, that is an awesome image! The only way I could ever get that close to a bear would be if there was a wall or fence between us. A beautiful animal, and I like the way it contrasts the snow and the environment.

Yeah, I know. I read that you stayed by your car when you took the picture, which was a good idea--quick get-a-way plan.

Ah so this is the Grizzly you spoke of in your journal. What a majestic fellow. I love this shot, the bear of course but also the tones of the plants and the crisp white snow that add to enhance the beauty of the image wonderfully.

Heh, it couldn't look any further down its nose at us if it tried. How regal and self-assured it looks. You caught the perfect exposure and pose. Great photo. Score 5/5 for aesthetics and photographic technique.

Absolutely amazing! @ 420mm, were you using an extender or which lens did you use for this shot?

Azyiu In reply to Nate-Zeman [2008-05-05 03:57:32 +0000 UTC]
So which lenses do you usually bring with you while you are on a shoot?

Ahhh! Bears. One of the main reasons I want to travel to the US one day is to see the wildlife... Sigh. This is as beautiful and majestic as the name suggests. Wonderful.

I love grizzly bears, I just love them.
This shot is absolutely amazing, cute little bear pose and the background is lovely. I can't stop saying 'aww' out loud here, that's just... breathtaking.

This is an inspiring shot.

If this is from your eyes, I can't imagine what Thomas, you're idol, has shot. What a beautiful animal. Were they really as social as it seems? Usually bears here on the east coast are pretty shy, they flee usually before you actually notice their presence.

So listen, you shot this with a 420mm focal length. That puts this Grizzly at , what, about 75 ft? Were you in the truck when you shot this!? Cuz I'm thinkinthis guys probably hungry after hibernation and can move fast. LMAO I want to here the details please! THis is purely, hands down a great shot!
