    Nice shots.

    Is it me or do those Grizzlies look very thin?

    I had the pleasure of photographing Grizzlies in the Khutzeymateen Valley and they all looked like butterballs compared to these two.

    Wonderful set of images! clap.gif
    I have to agree that the bears look rather skinny - the cub in particular. I do hope they had some good fishing. They look like they need it!

    the cub was well within five feet at one point. i used a 1d IV and 70-200mm 2.8 IS II for these shots.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
