Something I hope to get later this year Chas. The bright red of the Salmon stands out nicely with the bear.

[Stu Bowie]

I like the low perspective, and good to see the raised left paw showing movement. The falling droplets from the bear really adds to the image, and his catch a bonus.

[Paul Taylor]

I agree with everything said above and would add that the background is beautiful. What a really lovely shot.

[Robert Amoruso]

BG works well with this bear as it is neither distracting or obtrusive into the moment - the bear stands out from it well. Great looking salmon.

[DanWalters]

Really like the splashing water under the bear and the red in the salmon really stands out.

Fantastic image Chas. Great timing and wonderful comp.
