The Stare

I really like the overall look of this one. This young male Spirit Bear was fishing for salmon and just seemed to be in a trance as he stared at the stream. I also like the good look at those claws. Processed with Lightroom, Photoshop and Lightzone. Comments and critiques welcome.

The exposure on the bear, it's pose and the details around it's feet make for a great image, Jerry.

Excellent capture, Jerry! The large view puts you right there as if you were hiding behind a bush, viewing this private moment. Great job controlling the exposure with the extremely high contrasts in the scene and the focus is right on the money also.
