Brown bear, AK
Brown bear searching for salmon in river.
I have photographed brown bears throughout AK. The background can make all the difference in the success of an image, and it is the main reason I change locations from year to year.

). First, I love the photo. All the good things have been said above. The one thing that strikes me is how centered the subject is. Over in avian that would likely get pointed out as a nit. So I am wondering what your though process was (knowing your usual high standards I expect you did make this a deliberate decision) on choosing to center the bear - are you letting the background play a more prominent role in the composition?
