Hi Mike,

Great shot ... but I think I would have preferred to see to shoot
that with something like a 300mm instead of the 18mm indicated :-)


I like the wider angle, but a closeup of the bear would have been awsome
too. OTOH you have to respect someone who takes a picture of a bear that
close at 18mmg


Respect them, or fear for their will to live?

And lo, Rich emerged from the ether
and spake thus:

snip

18mm shot and the bear was that large in the frame? She's lucky she
didn't get attacked!


Bears don't typically attack unprovoked. Wearing a "bear-repellent
bell" is usually enough to keep them away. They shy from confrontation
unless they're hungry and you look like food, or if you interfere with
their cubs.

Still, she must be quite the dedicated photographer to get closer for
the shot while the bear was walking toward her, no?

You only need bells in black bear country. Do you know
how to tell the difference between grizzly bear scat and
black bear scat? The grizzly bear scat has little bells
in it and smells like pepper spray ;-).

Seriously, some bears are attracted to bells, especially
a young one who has never heard them before. It is very hard
to predict what a bear will do.

Still, she must be quite the dedicated photographer to get closer for
the shot while the bear was walking toward her, no?

Or it was a controlled environment, e.g. the photographer was
in a car.

Wow. Is it just me, or is there a fair bit of talent there?


More than a bit. I've had her on my Favorites list for some time now.
Great stuff. Makes me want to travel.

Agreed. I would've called that one "FINAL SHOT OF THE 350D!"

Looking at her galleries, it is amazing what one can accomplish with a
cheap body, a great lens, a lot of talent, and a little bit of
Photoshop.
My kind of girl!

But her body wasn't cheap, really, when she got it some two plus years ago.

If she'd get her horizons straight, she'd get the + after the A.

your wish.

That should have read "does."

My point was that the Canon 350D isn't exactly near the top of the line
as far as Canons go.
