We were out early waiting for sunrise and the coastal brown bears were up looking for breakfast along the shores of Cooke Inlet in Alaska. This is what I'd call a long lens animalscape. Light was quite low but had a lot of color. Mountains are 50-60 miles away.

Gorgeous image, I love the colours and the pose of the Bear.
I would probably crop above the dark line at the bottom. I feel it would work better!
Lovely stuff!

Hi Dale love this one a lot , you have gorgeous light and colors in this fame. Great composition with that wide look into the distance , i might loose the dark band in the FG for a really clean FG .
