    Hope all is well with my friends here. Little too busy at work lately. My apologies for lack of participation.

    Here is an image from black bear trip with Chas in May.

    Hi Sid, you have been missed, nice to see you back.

    Great behavioural image, looks like he really is enjoying that scratching post and the raised paws are a nice touch. You can feel his relief in the stance. He certainly stands out well against the rich, green, habitat.

    Nice behavioural portrait and I like the paw with the claws stretched out. Good detail in the black fur.

    Hi Sid - nice to see you posting, you have been missed. Good behavioral shot and I really like the sheen and detail in the fur. For me, the tree bark and fg grasses seem a little bright. I'm wondering if a little selective burning might enhance the image. Hope you get some time to post more.

    TFS,
    Rachel

    Love the moment here. We've missed your posts and I look forward to you having more time in the future to share some of your great work with us again
    Exposure seems spot-on here, as does the framing for my tastes.

    Rachel,
    Agree with you on tree bark and FG grass. I guess I need to tone it down a bit.
    thanks

    Thanks Janet.

    Just after it stopped raining and sun came out. Bear was a little bit wet too.
