wow, I would have freaked. Been to Glacier NP myself and have a healthy respect for the Bears they have there...the look in this guys eyes are hard to read. Its amazing for such a large animal that they have such small eyes in comparison.

I would freak out if grizzly was so close to me... Great job, you're a real professional!

Definitely conveys a mood and strong message. I've been in that situation as well with a number of subjects over the years, and it is not a good thing!!!! I do not care to be there again! When the head goes down and the slight swaying starts it is game on...and it will typically end badly for one or both. I learned a lot about animal behavior from each encounter. Glad it worked out well for the both of you. Safe travels and good light. Chas

Great capture under pressure, Buck! How close was this big boy? I once had a close encounter with a grizzly bear in Yellowstone that was about thirty feet away. He stopped and stared at me as I slowly reached for my video camera that I had just set in my backpack.

Well Paul ...... I was shooting with my 400mm 2.8 lens (freehand) and I was coming around a bend going up hill a little.... that would make the russian river down below me about 30 yard,........ and he was about a little more than half way between me and the river ... closest to me..... so take a guess ......... for me it doesn't matter the feet..... I was just tooooo close.

Whoa, man! Just reading the story along with the shot, I almost peed myself. Love the view through the grass and ferns and whatnots. Really nice change from the usual.

Yikes, I think my bear spray would have come out before the camera. Nice shot though!
