    The colors look much more vibrant than on a sunny day in AK, love the rainbow connecting with the sow.
    If it were mine I'd probably change it to a pano crop to get rid of so much foreground

    I agree with the pano suggest. You also have some spots along the top in the sky.

    The rainbow coming down to the adult bear is killer. Well done lining it up.

    Welcome to the Wildlife forum Vikram. Nice first image. I would agree with trying a pano as the foreground certainly doesn't add a lot. The rainbow and the background hills are lovely and I like that you haven't really clipped the sand bar the bears are on.

    Very nice, love the scene and the rainbow.

    Vikram, I would definitely do a pano here, as suggested, and remove the dust spots as well. I would also sharpen it a bit more.

    Beautiful scene and colors. Like the way the repost brings more emphasis to the bears.

    Brilliant on the repost , Vikram . A very warm welcome on BPN . The scape is certainly one of the best bearscapes I have seen . The rainbow takes it over the top !!!
