    I liked photo number 1.It shows the strength of the bear and those long claws say, "Beware." Everything is so sharp; even the water droplets. The eyes show the bear is focused and running with purpose.

    Tim, I'm a direct response copywriter. I Had to write you a note about your ad that HOOKED me so good I signed up.
    The thing is, I watch youtube all the time and 90% of people never catch my attention. Your ad that started with "If you were to take a phone of that tree, how would you do it? etc..."
    So... Damn... good. I'm sure you're killing it. I'll reach out to you another time. Take care!

    • @TimShieldsPhotography
      @TimShieldsPhotography  3 роки тому +1

      So awesome to hear! It is great to know that my hook worked for that ad. I should make more just like that one. "If you were photographing this grizzly bear, how would you do it? " haha. Thanks for writing!

    #1 - it captured the moment that the bear to front of you and make viewers feel like you are in the scene. You feel the bear’s wilderness power.

    I vote for #1. I love the paw and claws in the air as she defends her territory. Nyall London

  • @dgazdikkc
    @dgazdikkc 3 роки тому

    I'm for number 1 as it is full of action and that paw and claws brings out the the fact that the bear means business and you better get out of her way.

    It’s tough to pick between 3, but in my opinion, number 1edges out the rest. Wonderful job Tim!

    • @TimShieldsPhotography
      @TimShieldsPhotography  3 роки тому

      Thanks George! It is pretty hard to ignore the drama from photo number one. Thanks for your vote.

    @dodiemonroe9232 3 роки тому

    #1 is my favorite with the paw in the air. #2 is everything you said; it's an awesome photo but #1 is the winner for me. Loved the video, btw!!

  • @suewhite4930
    @suewhite4930 3 роки тому

    I love #2 - this photo shows the regal nature of the Grizzly and simply draws you in with her powerful, calculating gaze. Photo #1 is a very close second, showing the power, fierceness and gracefulness that these amazing animals have.

  • @RalphNicolay

    • @TimShieldsPhotography
      @TimShieldsPhotography  3 роки тому

      Hi Martha, don't you just love those claws! They look great from afar, but I would not want to see them close up. Thank you for writing! Tim

  • @bevcobbett42
    @bevcobbett42 3 роки тому +1

    #1 is full of action, shows her power, her anger, her protective mother-instincts, in motion. #2 is mostly neutral for me. A nice pic. #3 brings out my own emotion, sadness at seeing a very old bear nearing the end of her life cycle, possibly completing her cycle with these cubs. There was another photo that I liked as well as # one, but I have no way of pinpointing for you which one it was. Beautiful, Tim.

  • @agentlemind5282
    @agentlemind5282 9 місяців тому

    Photo three. I love the balance. It's almost like a mirror image into the past (or future) of the bear's life. I learn a lot from your video's, as I am planning to get out full time RVing to do exactly what you are now doing.

  • @melaniecullen9067

  • @valdagarber-weider3081
    @valdagarber-weider3081 3 роки тому +1

    Photo one is my favorite. Motion, water movement and seeing that powerful paw (and claws) with fixed eyes make this for me..VGW

  • @cjcollom
    @cjcollom 3 роки тому

    Favourite: #1 -- the way she is slapping the water with her massive paws (to send a message to the intruder!) is a rarely seen or captured behaviour of these bears. If she could talk you'd have heard something like "Alright mister! That is close enough! Now I'm getting ticked off!"

  • @jeffsidle4060

    @cliffordwieger45 3 роки тому

    They each, tell a different story, so it is difficult to choose. However, I have selected # 3 shows the power of the mother and also the bond with her cub.

    Number one is my pick and number three.
    I like the action and movement in one. In three I like the size comparison giving perspective of the two animals.
    For someone who spends half the year at sea I understand the difficulties of shooting on water and struggle with the metering

    You did get the shots. Enjoyed them very much. I once killed a bear of this magnifacence and regretted it for the last 40 years. I captured an abandoned spirit bear, mostly black with al white paws and sent him to a sanctuary to be released next year. Perhaps the spirits will forgive me. # 1 jumps at me and I feel the bear, magnificent. Thank You.

    Outstanding!!! Love all three. If you ever get an opportunity (put it on your bucket list) - Give Katmai National Park (Katmai Falls) a try; I had an opportunity to go there and the bears and opportunities to capture a LOT of shots is unbelievable. It's a flight into Anchorage and then a float plane trip to Katamai....As we came into the Brooke's Lodge area we had to circle in the water as there was a sow and two cubs walking right down the beach. Keep up the great work!

    • @TimShieldsPhotography
      @TimShieldsPhotography  3 роки тому

      Hi Keith! Yes, Katmai National Park is number one on my list for the next grizzly bear trip. In fact, we tried to get there in the summer of 2020 but covid stymied our plans. With that said, we got to experience this lesser known location and katmai is still there waiting for us to discover it. Hopefully in 2021 we will get there! Thanks for writing. Tim
