Taken a while back, not the best composition, would like to have had more room all round, but with a slight rotation and a fixed 500 it has limited the overall shot.
If any of you have seen recently the BBC programme 'The Great Bear Stakeout' then this was taken in the second part of the programme & location, with Brad Josephs as Bear Guide, top guy! The shot was taken in a small gully which allowed me to get low down, lying in fish guts & bear poo, all organic and it washes out, eventually.Wished I had the MKIV then or even the 1DX to have got more pixels, however I have no hesitation in going back and is high on the wish list. Light was high & at times harsh, but you have to make the best of what you are given.
