Bears are so special to me. They have such expressive eyes, and this one seems to be really having fun. He made me smile. Thanks to you for capturing a great moment!

What a gorgeous photo, and such an interesting subject. This bear does have special eyes, there’s a depth and expression to them that I don’t usually see (and I see lots of bear photos here in Montana). Congratulations on such a great composition and beautiful photo!

I just checked out his website and bookmarked it. This guy is good – really, really good. He captures that special moment in the eyes of the subjects, even birds. What an eye – what an artist.

No way, such a very cool shot. What’s he doing up anyway, isn’t he supposed to be hibernating during the Winter? Love it! Congratulations!!
