Fish's Eye View of Brown Bear

I didn't say fish eye lens view  

This one from a couple of years ago. I was working it for a possible print.

D4, AF-S 80-400

Thanks, West. That's a pink salmon(aka humpy). But they'll eat any protein they can catch.

Thanks, Louie.

 

Thanks, Bob. Even a blind squirrel finds and acorn once in a while  

Thanks, Ann. Yes this shot is all about that poor fish. As a matter of fact I've titled this one "Humpy" which is the Alaskan term for pink salmon due to their backs becoming humped when they morph during the spawn.

Thanks, Karen. This one will do well on metal.

Thanks, Mike. They're just a plane ride away.

Indeed the poor fish is in for a rough couple of minutes. The bears don't bother killing them before they eat. At least this one is already spawned out so had fulfilled its mission before being caught.

Thanks, Mike. Yes the fishes eye was my point of focus... Well at least it was in the focal plane   I've posted some similar shots in the past but I don't think this is one of them.

 

Thanks, Dossy. It was fun for me but a bit more important to the bear  

 

Thanks, Nick. Yes the water adds a dynamic aspect to these shots of the bears fishing.

Thanks, Randy. For some reason I find that 3D look that we see on screen is hard to replicate in print. But IMO it comes out better on metal than any other print media.

 

Maybe my career should have been in advertising rather than engineering   Glad you enjoyed the image.
