Very cute!
Nice detail , BG, and dof.
Wish they were looking up, though!

Hi Marco,

Nice symmetry and repeating pattern! I also like the symmetry of the image and the sloping shoreline. These little guys look quite intent on checking some smell (perhaps another bear walked this way shortly before?). Hard to go wrong with an image of bear cubs - major cute factor!

Cheers...thanks for sharing this...

Pretty obvious cloning job you are presenting here Marco.

Just kidding! The symmetry is what this image is all about and you presented it very well. I like their spiky hair styles. Overall a very pleasing image and at the same time a nice behavioral shot.

Great low angle and clean background. Must have been a great experience!

Very cute cubs. Wish the lighting had been from the left of the frame, though. In the image, the near sides of the cubs are in shadow.
