Brooks Falls.........one got away. With all the images and possibilities tried to convey the sense of the falls more and what the salmon must go through. Quite the spectacle.
Canon 1D Mark lll with the 100-400 at f8 for 1/1000th of a sec. and ISO 800.
Same comment as on the previous one. Fishes way sharp--bear looks suspect. Lack of detail and soft. Have you been (over-) lightening the bear?

Here's the original unprocessed tiff...only cropped and converted. Looks sharp w/ BB magnifyinf glass. Maybe the levels lightening is making it look funky?......or tone down the red?
Again, brown bear from Brook's has super timing, exposure, etc....but the image lacks detail and something is definitely wrong with post processing appearence. It may be too much Recovery slider, as this will give a similar pastey look?
I agree with the comments - your original looks sharp enough though - must've been picked up in PP.
great shot and timing! I would chop off some space at the bottom and add some to the right.
