We came upon this clearing early one morning and I found myself wishing there would be some sort of animal walking through the fog to complete the scene. (which never seems to happen when you want it to) Next thing I know I spot a grizzly bear slowly wandering across the flats. It was a very surreal scene that looked very much like a dream. These are the kind of shots I live for.

Grizzly Bear - Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming.

This is the luckiest shot ever. I seem to see the best things when I don't have a camera!

Incredible, looks like a scene rendered in a movie, but since it's actually real life, it makes it ten times better.

Until I read the description I actually thought it was a polar bear, and I was wondering about were you had taken the shot

Anyway, the picture is great it just blows you away! I really like the composition. Great job, and thanks for sharing!

Grizzly bear is very tight to the bottom of the frame, but you managed to pull it off very well! Looks like a book cover! Very nice :3

wooow that really does look like a dream~ Except my dreams are never that interesting XD
The most interesting dream I've ever had was one where my friend got eaten by a port-o-potty.

Uhm.. Anyway, I really like this picture, I think you have magical powers that allow you to be in the right spot at the right time where ever you are

Looks nice
I was just wondering, how would you feel/react if you didn't have a camera with you or something happened that you would be unable to take the photo?

superb - maybe a little less sky and a bit more space below and it would have been flawless.

Nate-Zeman In reply to grevys [2009-04-28 15:01:17 +0000 UTC]

Yeah I hear you... Problem is that the snow ends right where I cut the bottom of the shot off. If I included the dirt it would ruin what I was going for with this shot. I guess with wildlife photography you just need to work with what you're given

that is one tiny bear. I get dust on my lens about the size of that bear.

j/k
