Brown bear chasing salmon

[D. Robert Franz]

From my bear tour in Alaska I just finished. Here we has some great afternoon light to work with and had the bear coming right at us.

As always shown as captured.

Stunning image so very well captured, one of the best bear shot i have seen here

[Marina Scarr]

Love the power this capture generates. The water splashes are great. I would rather see just a tad more room on top and bottom if you have it.

[Sid Garige]

Brilliant action very well captured Dale.

[John Blumenkamp]

Amazing image Dale!! One of the best I've seen as well!

[Morkel Erasmus]

Fantastic head-on angle, intensity, action and details here Dale...

[Grant Atkinson]

Super bear shot, great colours in this one. The tremendous amount of water the bear has displaced gives a good idea of the power at play here...
Good work

[Andrew Merwin]

I agree with Marina. I really like the water droplets and the power conveyed by this image. A very cool image.

[Harshad Barve]

very nice but I guess you should comment on others images too

Great eye contact and I really like the spray of water. Agree about a little more room on the bottom.

Agree.
