... at least my impression , after realizing that this big male bear was just standing on a relatively small rock in the middle of the Kambalnaya River on Kamtchatka . He was just waiting for salmon to run along the shallow river .
It was very foggy , hence the low contrast BG and dull colors . I pushed the subject more than I would normally do .... still trying to keep the misty look & feel . AS the original was flat as a pancake in terms of tone and contrast .
