Hi Harry.
Wow, amazing detail, excellent image of just how it is.
It sure is incredible, as you have shown how the bears perch at the very top of the falls and manage to keep their balance in the fast water. Welcome to TN.

Hoi Harry,
Alweer een prachtige foto waar je een super mooi moment hebt weten vast te leggen. Ik denk dat het daar zijn en het daadwerkelijk meemaken misschien nog wel mooier is dan het nemen van de foto. Prachtig werk qua compositie helderheid en scherpte. Ik vind alleen de rechter poot er een beetje raar uit zien. Als of je net te veel schaduw hebt weggehaald.(?)
Groeten,
Niek

Hi Harry,
a very fine picture with great action of this fishing bear.
The details and sharpness are very good and the DOF as well.
The colours and contrast are aslo nice, you did a good scanning job.
Well done.

Hi
Another great picture. I am really surprised that you got this one with an 70-200 mm. Don't tell me you used the 70 mm with your feet in the water ;-)
Looking forward for more pictures and critiques (they are most welcome!)

Hi Harry,
Once again...a winner!
Same critique as yesterday...
I see it is captured back in 03. Do you shoot digital nowadays? Perfect scanning skills by the way...

Hi Harry,
Welcome to TrekNature. That is a stunning capture. As was your first post. Great quality light and a spot on exposure. The action is perfectly frozen with accurate colors and sharp detail. Superb camera work. I looked at your website, and it is really great.

A classic from the Brooks Falls that's as good as any I've seen from Katmai. Great detail, esp. on the bear's fur. Regards,

A stunning nature shot with great action of rushing water and the movement of the bear. Exposure is perfect producing rich natural colors of bear. Focus is excellent with great detail and there is nice DOF. Great title.

Hello again Harry,
This is another beautiful wild life shot! You seem to have been quite close to catch this kind of expression on the fish face @ 200mm :) Again, POV, composition, exposure and action are superb. This must be impressive to see those great animals in the wild. Thanks,
Claudine

Such a nice follow up of a critter I would probably never see in the wild for myself. The exposure handling really impressed me. Your water and the darker areas of the bear is perfect. Very well done.
