I just arrived back home from leading a Grizzly Bear photo tour in British Columbia. Haven't had a chance to dig into all of the trip photos yet, but this one jumped out. The gods of morning mist were smiling on us this day  :D !

Canon 1DX2, 100-400 IS II. 

Thanks for looking!

Lovely composition with the bear "leaving" the frame. Great light as well.

Nice mood and the position of the bear just makes the scene!

Nicely composed with that gnarly bush on the proximal bank. A beautifully shot bearscape.

Wow this is just lovely! The mist, the "icy" looking trees, all the layers, and perfectly positioned bear. I can see why it jumped out at you!

Bold composition (unbalanced) here with bear looking out of the frame... Like it very much seems to work well. Great job!
