Katmai Brown Bear

Last summer I spent some time in Alaska. For a wildlife photograher, there are few places in the world that can match this beautiful place. This grizzly was captured in Katmai National Park. The only access to the park is by plane or by boat.

Tip

For this image, there are two. a) Perspective - get down low where possible to be on the same eye level as your subject. This often yields much more pleasant and less distorted images, b) Cropping - here I cropped the top of the image a bit tight to the eyes of the bear. It creates more tension in the frame and makes the bear look more menacing.

Please note that you should NEVER be this close to a bear unless your follow VERY strict guidelines. The bear captured here is indeed wild. I was part of a group and we used a experienced guide. We did not approach the bear. Rather, she came close to us. We held our ground. Although she gave us a few glances, we were mostly ignored.
