Yesterday I posted an opossum that came by my fallen-tree camera trap set up. Here’s one when a few bears came by. It’s usually disappointing when I see a bear or bobcat with the head just out of frame, but sometimes it works. In this image, the focus is very clearly on the claws, and the bear in the back added a bit of depth. Nikon D810 with Nikkor 17-35mm lens (at 20mm) ISO 500, f/14 at 1/160th of a second, Cognisys camera box, trail monitor and remote flash units.
Vivid photo of Bear Power. I understand now why I had a fear of what and how a bear might be able to do to me when I confronted many wild bears while working in the Forest Service in my early 20’s.

Huge claws!
No doubt.
Impressive! Don’t mess with daddy!
No sir. I love that I share space with these guys. I suppose you get many down your way too.
I paid to see the WHOLE animal, Sean. I expect to see the WHOLE animal, Sean.
Oh wait, I didn’t pay anything.
Nvm, this is cool
I love it!
Thanks Sue.

Thanks Bob. Yes, I liked that this image was a bit different, really focusing in on those potentially deadly claws.
Mighty, majestic, magnificent.
Thanks Donna.
