Hi folks .... been quiet lately , sorry too busy with other stuff .
Just a quick posting to show i am alive ...LOL.
This image shows a Kamtchatka Brown Bear going for salmon ....at Kambalnaya River on Kamtchatka Island . The last morning we had in the reserve .... and it was soooooooo foggy we could barely see the bears in parts . Was quite thrilling to hike through thick fog to the bears ........ but all was quite ok.

Thanks for watching and commenting to my previous posting ....
HI Andreas, sounds like it was a thrilling adventure! Personally I love this one, in my opinion the foggy atmosphere just adds to the authenticity of the scene. I would have considered removing on or two water drops around the eye of the bear to get a more open view of the eye, but its just my personal taste. Action is fantastic, sharpness as well.
Hi Andreas -- A very nice moment to witness and capture.
I liked the foggy atmosphere which you have retained in your posting, very difficult shooting conditions to capture the action but you have done quite well. Framing is very good as well. Overall a fine job at PP and capturing the frame.
Hi Andreas - good to see you posting again, lets see some more
I saw the first post and downloaded and adjusted it but I see it was already adjusted when I saw the second image!! Given the original conditions I think you have done enough, it would be easy to overdo and lose the authenticity of the scene.
