the one that got away .... among many others :)

[Jamie Strickland]

From my trip to yellowstone a few months ago with Dale Franz. This beauty was doing a nice pose of twisting his head listening in the snow going to pounce looking straight at us ... then he decided to turn back on and do the pounce :( ..... if only it was facing us !

Canon 7D, 500L + 1.4TC F8 @ 1/500, added some canvas to the top & left because it was so tight

Jamie,

i commend the effort, but it does not work for me without being able to see a part of the face or eye.

Respectfully,

Chas

I agree with Chas, everything else is working in the image (composition, great looking subject, nice light, spot-on epxosure), but w/o the face it does not work out.

[Jamie Strickland]

I agree with you guys as well, hence why I called it the one that got away :)
