About the Image(s)
When we visit Yellowstone we always stay in West Yellowstone. There they have a Grizzly and Wolf Sanctuary for animals that are injured. This was taken with my Nikon DSLR 7200 with a 18-200 lens (crop factor). An interesting thing to note: at the sanctuary, they put food in various camping coolers, place them in the day area for the bears and see if they can open them. Apparently manufacturers use this as one way to test their products. It was interesting to watch them toss the coolers around and try to open them.

Great action shot. Posted: 07/10/2024 12:45:55
Noticed that the right bear is a bit out of focus. Did you crop this image from a bigger framed picture taken ?
The timing of this image is right in the action. Posted: 07/15/2024 10:40:23

Focus is an ongoing issue for me and yes, I did crop it in a little. Posted: 07/19/2024 17:31:32
