I liked the way this guy stands out from the background. I also like the good look at those claws. Processed with Lightroom, Photoshop and Lightzone. Comments and critiques welcome.

Excellent look at this Spirit bear - I also like how well he stands out from the BG.
Impressive catch and image!

Jerry, a great look at this bear.  The intensity of it's stare and the details in the bear are great.  You also did a fine job handling the exposure and high contrast with the subtle details in the larger view adding nicely.
