I'll bet people don't go walking out on that path too late in the evening. Superior capture.

Ignorant me was about 10 feet away on this photo. Everyone else around 30 feet away thought they were watching a complete idiot. lol

It was a very interesting week watching the bears gorge on spawning salmon. The High Dynamic Range (HDR) part of the project was quite an experience.

serious business this bear, great pic

After stalking this bear for about a week, standing in it's morning walk pathway was kinda unnerving for this bear on the way to it's salmon breakfast. It scooted around 10-15 feet off it's normal route to get the salmon breakfast.

Wow, what an awesome image, Perry!! It is almost like the bear knows exactly what is happening, like he/she is posing for you....Wow...amazing capture!!

LOL, I think the bear was somewhat shocked I was standing in it's morning routine walkway. lol

I would not have liked to have been greeted by this walker!
PROMedias US replied:
LOL, the wild bears are accustomed to tourists/semi domesticated. It is illegal to hunt bears here, hence no natural enemies and are very relaxed most of the time. I try to stay around 50-100 feet away, maybe more if they have kids.
