Nice bear photo. I like that you have kept detail in the bear's coat and in the BG. Thanks for sharing.

Sandy,
Great series of pictures of Grizzlies! I think all of them show great detail and the Habitat of the northern Grizzlie. Thanks for sharing all these shots with us, and I look forward to more in the future.

Excellent detail on the bear here Sandy, despite the bright BG (which could easily have resulted in underexposing the bear). Personally I would crop it to 3:2 or 4:3 by removing a slice from the bottom, but that's just me not liking square crops much.

Good job, Sandy I like this fine, but prefer the added action of your previous posting! Both are good.

Well done Sandy. You managed a head turn and a catchlight. Like the setting.
