The Fight Club

The December issue of National Geographic (Dutch edition) featuresthree pages of the brown bear images I shot in Finland. This is one ofthe shots that they selected, showing two playing brown bear siblings,just after the rain had stopped. The one on the left hit the one onthe right on the head, causing a spray of drops from the wet fur.

The image was shot from a hide in an open swamp area, close to theRussian border.
