'Grizzly Bear at Dawn,' by Danny Green

“Grizzly Bear at Dawn,” Lake Clark National Park, Alaska, USA, by Danny Green, Loughborough, Leicestershire, UK. This image was “Highly Honored” in the Wildlife category.

Says Green: “Here, a young bear was waiting patiently for his mother to catch his breakfast. It was early morning and the sun was just starting to appear above the horizon, creating the perfect backdrop of intense orange and red color.”

I tried to get rid of the many reflections but found it was causing problems with the subtle gradation of color, so could only get some of them, probably not too well. But I liked the picture and story too much to leave it out.
