some bear in a meadow

The bear's not smelling the flowers. He is probably smelling you. And the bear is a grizzly. I was surprised at how visitors at Waterton, when I was there, got out of their cars with a sow and cubs maybe 40 feet away, and blew their horns to get he bear's attention for a picture. Bears smell from 25 miles away, so as you hit the trail with a backpack full of ham sandwiches, they are on their way.

Boosted the greens? Doesn't look quite natural. I blew it up and saw the bear was a little soft as far as focus is concerned. Maybe use spot focus. Also, I know you need to show the bear's environment, but that's a lot of grass. Maybe tighter cropping, leaving the flowers and some of the gass. Now, with this crop, we have pieces of trees and a shadow that are not necessary.

this is a black bear, not a grizzly. it's zoomed full out at 624mm so that's about as sharp as it gets, unfortunately.

he was eating the flowers! but lost interest with them and hit the berry bushes instead
