We had been looking for this female and her cubs for several days, we eventually found them as the sun was setting. Unfortunately a traffic jam at the sighting meant some poor positioning something I am not really used to.suffering as I generally go to "quiet" places.

Really like this. To me it has a slight green cast to it. It must have been a thrill even if it was crowded.

The cubs and warm lighting are positives, but the busy background is a significant detraction, imo.  As always, this would be a fun encounter!
