The shoot is very interesting. The only noise point is the green in the top!
Very well!
Awesome Charles, I like the way you captured it coming straight at you. Nice splash and sharpness.![]()
This is one of the most impressive wildlife images I've seen in ages, blows me away.
I'd be in retreat!
Have you changed the 1ds3 for a Mk4?
Shot with a naked 300! How far away; how much crop? Perfection!
Cheers, Jay

Wow...this is nothing short of awesome!! I want to know, what happened to you and the bear in the next few moments?
This is something else Charles. The saliva is the icing on the cake.
Awesome image Chas...love the pose, action and splashes...
Was this with the new 2x?
Small nit - the droplets at the top seem to be brigther and more 'stand-out' than the rest. Could this be the result of sharpening/compression?![]()
Chas - Simply great. Love the head on pose with the paw position.
TFS,

A great shot is one that makes you say "Wow" .... I said it when I opened this image.
Nice frame filling (without seeming to tight) action shot. Love the focused look and flying droplets.
Amazing image Chas ,

Great action! Dramatic and I really like the eye contact.
Brilliant image Chas. Perfect action very well captured.
Just wanted to add my congratulations on a fine image...Appeals to me on all levels!![]()
Thanks all,
This was taken with the 2x II not the newer one.
Bears are certainly my favorite subject.
With over 50 bear workshops hosted to date (black, brown, polar) I have acquired quite a bit of behavioral and location knowledge. And, this of course translates into better imagery.
I will be in the Artic for over 4 weeks in the coming months photographing all three bear species, along with moose, caribou, wolves, and more. I can't wait!!!!
