Just trying to change tact in the direction of images posted. :bg3:

This is another taken from the sequence of the two cubs fishing. This little guy was the more prolific in his fishing skills whilst his sister stayed close to Mum (Mom). Taken mid afternoon, so for once the light was quite bright for Alaska. :S3:

Hi Steve

Very cute and nice one. Good details etc. Maybe I would like it even more in slightly less exposure.

Hi Steve - a cutey for sure. I like the sort of look back pose, the raised paw with the water running off and the great detail. Nicely done. I guess it is time for me to revisit some of my bear shots too.

TFS,
Rachel

Nice capture Steve. I like the detail, the raised paw with the water running off of it & the blood on his nose.

Lovely image and the look back over the shoulder gives the viewer a good feel, maybe a touch light overall...I took the image and played with the levels and went a bit darker...I think t works nicely!

Thanks guys.

Hey Dumay, nice to see back posting, when will see some images? :S3:

Can you repost it, I am away and just grabbed the file and posted it, so it might need a little more oomph as the laptop is not spot on.

cheers
Steve

A cute cub. I would crop off the top layer of green BG.
The blood on the nose is a nice touch.
