Sandrine, do you have a telephoto lense? Did you bring your tripod? I love how close you got.

@Marion: No, this was hand held. With my 70-300 lens. But he was very close to me, about 6-7 feet.

I am looking at the closeness and seeing you were just at 70mm . . wow . . this is exceptionally good! The bear looks ready for anything the cold could ever throw his way.

Son estupendas todas las fotos de animales. Esta del oso es soberbia. Un encuadre y una nitidez excelentes.
