This one is from my 2005 files.
I spotted this cub and its brother. Their mother had gone to hunt and had left them behind. This cub was inquisitive and came close to me. It was on a hill sloping towards us, so it was at a higher level than me. When it crouched I had to use all my experience to dissuade it. Even though cubs they are pretty powerful and can bend your tripod like a straw. Cubs are curious and playful and can cause a lot of damage. It soon felt comfortable and stayed near me for about an hour and forty minutes. Those days, I had limited cards. I opened my laptop and downloaded cards and then again photographed. :D
Canon EOS 10D, Tamron 28-80mm at 78 mm. 1/90 sec at f4.5 and ofcourse ISO 100. Those days, I was still shooting with my EOS 1V HS, so could not think beyond ISO 100. Full frame and hand held.
Would love your comments.
