    This posting has better IQ than previous one John, probably due to more DoF, but still could be improved with better techs, like the habitat.

    A pleasing image, I lake the colours and composition, the ears and neck are perhaps a little heavy.
    He doesn't seem to have much more hair on his shoulder/thigh than I have on my head!!

    Hello John,

    Some incredible sightings you have had last year

    Nice framing here and great pose from the bear, good POV (perhaps image a tad tight at the bottom, WDYT? )

    Lovely BG. Colours look natural, I would just open the blacks if this were mine. A small dark blob in the lower left corner of the image, draws the eye a bit.

    Love the stare from the subject and those raised tiny hairs on its back, very cute fellow.

    PS. Is he a youngster or an adult?

    Kind regards,
    Gabriela Plesea
