•  Support stunning quality, esp. considering the high ISO --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 05:33, 13 July 2022 (UTC)

• Thanks. The R6 can cope with IS0 6400 if you are close enough which is a great help in fading light. Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:04, 13 July 2022 (UTC)

•  Support It reminds me of one of Byrdyak's FPs, but it's ok. The composition of this one is different enough, it has better quality and its face is more cute. -- IamMM (talk) 08:34, 13 July 2022 (UTC)

•  Support Although, I am wondering if a tighter crop might not improve this (see note). But ... at the same time I can see how the image benefits from showing the bear's natural environment, and I defer to the photographer's well-demonstrated judgement in this area. Daniel Case (talk) 17:32, 15 July 2022 (UTC)

• Happy for others to crop for a particular use, but I like the forest environment. So un-zoolike. Charlesjsharp (talk) 18:58, 15 July 2022 (UTC)

• I prefer the crop as it is. It's nicely composed and showing the bear in its natural environment adds value. —Bruce1ee^talk 07:12, 16 July 2022 (UTC)

•  Support But I would have preferred to have the whole body in focus (more depth of field) --Wilfredor (talk) 13:17, 16 July 2022 (UTC)

• Of course, but technically impossible without unacceptably high ISO. The bear is on the move so slower shutter speed not possible. Perhaps with very expensive prime lens, but I don't have one. Charlesjsharp (talk) 19:12, 16 July 2022 (UTC)

•  Pile on support! --Ivar (talk) 19:03, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
