    For me at least, one of my favourites from your trip!! The totally wet look combined with the caveman-like pose and of course the low angle just takes this image to another level. Something unique, at least for me (I don't get to see bear behaviour that often, so take it as that).

    Nice one Chas. Good positioning on the bear and water a big plus.

    Love that water dripping off this bear. Just enough DOF to see the environment without being distracting.

    Hi Chas,
    again image with great content, like the one before.Nicely processed , but i like to see a bit color and more tonal contrast on the bear and the water.

    Flat overcast light = lower contrast. The low camera placement to the water negates a lot of the water surface texture, thus moving your eye to the bear.
    Wet fur flattens the hair.

    Everything Morkel said b/c this is very unique and unlike all of the other bear captures I have seen. Your low POV really brought this one to life.
