Munch munch-6967.jpg

Interior grizzly munching on some road side clover. This is from the front seat of my truck as I drove north. This is just north of Kluane Lake, there are a lot of these right in that little area of the world. I saw 8 on this trip alone and they are all concentrated in that little area. Sure wouldn't want to tent camp in that area.

This is just so good. At 365mm (and let's face it, this isn't something you'd want to be doing with a 50 prime) you must have been at some distance and yet you've zeroed right in and really nailed the DOF, getting it bang on grizzly's eyes and the dinner plants, leaving the rest fading out. I was thinking the same as pkocinski; the eyes suggest to me that grizzly is wondering what YOU would be like to "munch-munch"!
