I’m a bit scared. If I were behind the camera I would be worried.
I like more the right side of the background than the left side.
Nice shot.

This is so head on that the larger version is almost overwhelming. :) Great clarity and detail.

I like the hints of red on his muzzle.

Great intense look, Steve! I can tell he's about to catch something tasty.

Hi Steve,
To me this bear looks more focused than mean, but either way it's a good shot! I think the shot works well as presented, but might be even more appealing if the brightness of both the water and the lighter portion of the background were selectively reduced in brightness (probably by 1/2 stop or slightly more). Just a thought - but does work well as is!
Cheers...thanks for sharing this...

Great perspective, Steve! For a moment, though, I thought you had mounted your camera on a salmon to get this fish-eye-view!
