Very tastefully done. Any particular reason you had your shutter speed that fast?

Yes - I'd just finished photographing two young cubs fighting and splashing and didn't have time to switch before we spotted this one! Also, the bear was quite close and I am quite comfortable with ISO 1250 on the D850 as opposed to a slightly motion-blurred shot :)

This looks very well done. The light on the bear is bright and makes it look really good.

Thanks!

overexposure, almost looks like polar bear =)

Actually she was quite blonde for a grizzly!

Beautiful picture. Is it a lighter shade grizzly or is it just lighting? I have seen a blonde grizzly in Bella Coola.

Yes she was quite light!
