This is a good shot.. I would like to comment on a few issues... first of all, The focus is a little soft. It looks like you may have been making this photo under poor lighting.. maybe its overcast outside. I also think the bear is a little too close to the bottom of the frame... maybe a little 'breathing' room at the bottom would be nice. = 6 - jmsetzler

meeting challenge = 4 hard to tell if this is a zoo or actual sighting of a bear - definate fear there! Photo quality = 4. I'll go with the assumtion this was a shot taken quickly before the bear went away. total = 8

Comment by Froober:
Nice. The open mouth adds to the fear factor. This would be a lot scarier if he were standing on his hind legs and roaring at you. Why didn't you taunt him with some fried chicken or something? lol...great shot! 8 Lisa

You need to get more of the bear. If you are gonna go take pictures of bears you have to have a long lens so you can really fill the frame with him. In this picture the bear is just sort of ho hum walking around. There is nothing exciting pulling me in.

Comment by miller:
There's a bit too much grain here. Not sure if it's the camera or if you had to crop a lot. The bear looks a little too relaxed to be scary.

Not that I would wish you personal harm, but it would have been better if the bear were going towards you (more fear!) A bit dark. Background a bit fuzzy in places along with the bear. 6 Swash
