Fantastic image, Phyllis. Looks as tho you had a great time...

10/25/2010 5:53:20 AM

Thanks you guys....Pattie they were looking out for a very large male bear that was getting closer.

10/25/2010 10:04:21 AM

Beautiful capture of a mom and her 2 cubs. They look to be about 1-2 years old. You have to use +1 to +2exp compensation to keep the whites white. It looks like you did a great job with the lighting Phyllis.

10/25/2010 12:46:06 PM

Wonderful, awesome capture

10/25/2010 4:44:45 PM

Oh my, lucky you, Phyllis! An Alaskan trip - I would love to go back! And what an absolutely marvelous feat to capture a mother and her two cubs in their natural surroundings - I would have been so thrilled! Wonderful capture, too - your exposure is perfect! Hope we see this again!

10/25/2010 6:16:29 PM

They posed beautifully for you Phyllis - awesome capture!
