Face down in the mud in the middle of nowhere, soaking wet, surrounded by giant coastal brown bears. This is heaven for me.

I envy you, I would've been way too scared to go in front of a live bear with a strange object to it-- especially if it was looking right at me like that XD

You weren't, though, and you got a beautiful shot because of it. Intimidating subjects aside, getting dirty and "uncomfortable" is the funnest part of photography. We had to go outside in muddy rain for photography class today, I think I was the only one laughing more than whining.

Awesome Nate. the pictures from this trip just keep amazing me over and over again. I hope to one day go.
I wish more of the world could still be wild like this small outcrop of Alaska you visited.

Amazing photo. The bear in the front looks just like some of my anime bears. Sooooo cute! OMG!
:iconwendyandlisa:
Behold these magnificent bears! They look like they rule the earth. Well done!

Ok, but now seriously. The 3Dness of this photo is brilliant. Perfect DoF and focus. It looks so surreal. Like Nate said, it is sad that more untouched, unexploited land doesn't exist in our world. Another great shot, as per usual.

This is awesome. What a beautiful animal... and those claws. Yeah, I'd have been hiding!! ;)

Some beautiful colors here. Ah those paws and ears are so cute. Looks like the bear is studying you :)
