Description Gah. I hate this exhibit. I've never been able to get a really good picture of these guys. This is from quite a while ago, but I found it in a folder while I was placing a print order for the holidays.

Hope you like it at least a little bit!

It's a huge part of their exhibit. They have daily feedings of live fish

Well that would make the water fun for anyone. Unless you don't like eating live fish - which I don't, but I wouldn't mind swimming with some.

I think it is great that he is swiming in the water, because it makes his fur look sooooo beautiful

Considering the colour corrections you had to do it turned out great! Don't see the closeups of the bears too often

Was it hot? The bear seems to be very happy to be in water

"Hope you like it at least a little bit!"

What? Are you kidding me?

I just fell in love with this picture prior to reading your comment about it. There is not a single thing about this picture that I don't love.

It's no where near sharp enough to my liking, and the color was gawd awful. You know when you shoot through cyan-colored glass and the pictures come out green? They're a pain in the ass to fix! But I'm glad you guys like it I really like the pose.

That's funny because that softer appeal that is has to it happens to be one of my favourite aspects of this, especially when it comes to the fur. I don't know what the colour looked like originally, but I honestly do love the colour as you have it here. Don't be so hard on yourself, it's fantastic!

I'll show you the original sometime when I'm not in the middle of writing two papers

You see that button in the top corner that says "Logout". Go study!

I'm just kidding, of course.
