Description
These were taken on the same Alaskan back country bear trip as my previous images but these were all taken in very early morning or late evening.
Specific Feedback
Mostly curious about processing. I didn’t do much with these and I’m wondering if more can be had with any of them.
The crops and positioning of the bears?
Technical Details
z9, 180-600 @600mm, f/6.3, ISO 4000, 1/800, hand held
I can really feel the effort behind them; early starts, late finishes, plenty of kilometres on foot with gear that never feels lighter. Hard work, but it clearly paid off. What an incredible experience, and even better that you’ve captured these animals so beautifully.
No nits! Maybe a suggestion to mull over. #1 I really like the empty spaces, but feel there could be a slither more canvas on the bottom. #2 Not a single suggestion! Perfect! #3 That one dramatic bright cloud draws my eye a little #4 Cuteness overload. Would you consider reducing the highlights (just a smidge) in the rimlight and maybe just lift shadows on the bears. (also just a smidgen) I’m not sure if this is helpful, but I feel I want to rotate CW the image a bit.

Beautiful images, David. To me, That cloud in the third does pull my eye past the bear pretty strongly and I find the bear’s pose to be the least interesting of the three. I can’t find anything to nit pick in the other three.
