You should have broken those twigs out of the way before taking that first photo...

Just kidding! Those are great shots. Did you take those with the 300?

I know, I'm sure the bear would understand that I needed to move the twigs out of the way for photographic purposes! IMO I think they work well with the composition.

Yup, everyone of them was with the 300.

Thanks for the comments!

Nice shots. My first thought was "he's just going to go to sleep out there in plain sight?" But my second thought was "yeah, like anything's going to go up and bug him."


- I discovered I scream the same way whether I'm about to be devoured by a great white shark or if a piece of seaweed touches my foot.

The images are much too flat and lifeless for my taste.

Would be great if you could use some curves and make them pop a bit.

I love shooting Bears!

One thing about being a bear, you can sleep where you want. Whose going to wake you up and tell you to move!
Nice shots
