    Glorious, a sloth bear in the open, and moving.
    Perfect colours and a "glint" in one eye.
    BG is great , only nit would be the slight stump above bears back.

    Hi Harshad something I have heard, but not seen until now.;)

    Like it set against a good BG. Have you been cloning out around the back paws? As Ken said, shame about the post. Have mailed you a suggested tweak, as I feel in needs a boost in Curves.

    Good suggestions made. Love the sharpness and details in the fur Harshad. Very nice.

    Hi Harshad,

    You have managed to get good sharpness at 1/80 with a 600mm lens. Nicely done. Nit already mentioned by Ken.

    Really nice job with the sharpness and detail at that shutter speed on a beanbag. Great looking bear!

    Nice look from the bear and I like the raised paw. Nice of him to step up on that rock for you too. Personal preference on my uncalibrated monitor, it seems to pop a little more by making it just a touch darker with the midtone level slider. Nicely done on getting this photo.
