Coastal Brown Bear - Lake Clark Nat. Park No. 3

[Robert Amoruso]

Another from my workshop at Lake Clark National Park in August. The Sow's 3 year old cub is tangling with her over a fish just caught. The fish you can't see in this image but this had the best head positions for the bears.

Robert,
The action, the cub's face, the exposure, the background - all great!

Fabulous action Robert. Darn that seagull, but the action easily carries it.

[Juan Carlos Vindas]

Amazing image Robert. The face of the bear on the right is so human!
Love the action in this one.

Hi Robert.
Good action shot, I like this a lot. Good exposure, colour and detail captured.

[Gerald Kelberg]

Super action; well caught! And I really like the contrast of the browns against the bright blues.

Time that cub got sent packing!

[Richard Peters]

Agreed with the others, wonderful interaction. I'd love to photograph bears some day!

[Nagesh Mula]

This is simply Amazing. You have caught the action at the right moment. Loved everything in this picture, the interaction, water splash. I wish the fish was clearly visible as it would have made a lot more impact.
Congratulation!!

Very powerful image, love everything about it. Pity about the OOF gull behind the young bear, but that is only a minor detail.
