This big fella was telling me in no uncertain terms that the road belonged to him. Near Olifants Rest Camp, Kruger National Park.

Thanks Mike. I ended up slowly reversing for over a mile before eventually deciding I'd lost that battle. Turned around quickly when the gap was wide enough and went back to camp the long way round. Great experience though, an amazing animal.

Nice that you were able to get a low angle to the shot.

Thank you Charles.
It's hard for me to determine the Bears age.
Judging by the body size and shape of the face, possibly 3-4 years old.
Happy trails.

Hi Charles,
That is an amazing shot but what did you have for protection to be able to shoot that @16mm? Are you using a remote trigger?


John
Just enjoying everyday
