The Soul Within
Uploaded: September 08, 2003
An Alaskan grizzly in the wild; her eyes looked so human, as if there was a soul behind them. Canon EOS 10D, f/6.3, 1/100

WOW. What a great expression! How close where you????? She looks so gentle - I like the grass on the side too. Very nice shot! #57967Lori Ditlefsen September 09, 2003
Wonderful capture Jan! #192756Jan Forseth September 09, 2003
Thanks Lori. The bear approached within 10 yards at one point. We gave her the right of way on the beach next to the lake, needless to say. This bear and the others in the area are salmon-eaters and we felt no fear of her. #192780Lori Ditlefsen September 09, 2003
That would be so cool to experience. I am a huge wild animal lover from childhood. I would love to have that kind of close encounter. #192788Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
