Your technique is wonderful, Shawn. The only thing is that I would have liked to see the bear more into the frame. However, if I had a grizzly that close to me...I wouldn't have even gotten the shot! #3676906

Dear Shawn,

I love the motion blur effect in the composition, it adds to the drama. It reminds me of the last scene in the movie Legend of the Falls. Its good that you got out of the way in time!
