Love the sharpness of this ...could you are would you mind talking here about things like lens ?how long you stayed on this one bear ? how close?what thoughts were in your mind as you waited? i know to some these things sound silly to ask...tell more please...

Sure, we my friend and I were watching this particulalr Baer 'fish' for about 20 minutes,. I had waders on and the Camera was on Tripod, shot this one using my very heavy, 28 - 200 Canon F/3. Ended up about 20ft away. I was in Katmai National Park, in sept after the Park was closed... Thoughts in my head was typical when I go shoot the Bears.... Just how awesome these bears are, you notice how delicate they eat their fish and never the heads!! are and as always, you hope they don't suddenly find you of interest, which he/she didn't, just trying to eat as many Fish as they can before they hibernate for the winter... Hope that asnwers your question. Glad you liked it...Wishing you good light and beautiful images... Best - Chris.
