Griz

[KRIS]

Shot of old GRIZ in local zoo. I used a 200 mm lens to get a tight crop of his face.

Great shot!

One thing I look for is the eyes and whether or not they are sharp and you got it! There isn't a whole lot I would change. Love the bear's angry look... did he sign a waiver?

I agree the eyes are not alive. The distance was about 15ft and the sky was very cloudy. But I tried with CS2, levels after selecting the eyes with Lasso tool and got a little better result. Will post the same today.

Thanks for your critique.

Think you got the eyes right too, well done!

The lines on his fur really makes the viewer follow around

Thank you very much for your comments. Dont know for some reason I thought a twinkle would have increased the punch.

Thank you.
