    I see unnaturally sharp leaves above the head. Very cool pose and I bet you were "safe". :D
    Thanks for sharing.

    Great pose, and I love the vertical lines in the composition, Tell. I agree about softening the environment around the bear a bit.

    I like the stalking feel to this one, and the direct eye contact reinforces that feeling. Where was this taken?

    Tell,
    This looks nice. Agree with the comments above. I like the way the face is framed and the repeated pattern formed by trees.

    Cheers,

    Tell,

    Peter got my comment on the sharpness. Otherwise, very much like the off-center framing of the bear and how the image flows from the left FG to the right BG as the trees cede into the BG.

    Like the comp and off centre beak and that look and agree about the sharpening on the surrounding trees and foliage.

    Thanks everyone, your comments are most appreciated. I did have problems with this regarding sharpness and 'squishing' it down to 800 pixels because of the amount of detail in the trees and ground, looks like I overdid it a little :)
