Great looking bear Todd !!! Would try lighten the face area just a bit, imagine you need a real close up for those baby blues !!!

Sure wish I could have found one this year !!!

lovely compo and bear looks very healthy here
Agreed with Alfred

Agree with Alfred on lighting the face. You needed a bigger lens so we could see the baby blues. He is one fat bear getting ready to hibernate.

Good exposure on his coat to bring out the detail, and I like the eye contact. Thanks for sharing.

Congratulations on a lovely capture of Cinnamon. She has a great furry coat and I like the look and pose you captured in this image. We kept hoping we would have such an opportunity but maybe next trip :(

Sweet, I haven't seen my first bear yet, but keep hoping. Nice back light and eye contact.
